Hi, Who is best to report vulnerabilities in Observium to? I have a couple but I'd rather not publicly announce them due to the security nature of them. Regards, Daniel

graphing question
by Joshua Elson 04 Dec '13

04 Dec '13

Hi guys, I have a question on graphing. Last week I took some screen shots of our graphs for a specific simulation and then checked again this week for the exact same time periods and the numbers are the same, but the graphs are different. How does the graphing work exactly? In this first picture, we were wondering why the 225.05k isn't showing on the graph. It only goes up to 40k: [cid:image001.jpg@01CEF109.7988A100] When I checked this exact same graph with the same date and time stamp a week later, the numbers are the exact same, but the graph has changed although still doesn't go up to 225.05k, but does go up higher to 75k: [cid:image002.jpg@01CEF109.7988A100] Any help or insight is greatly appreciated!

Re: [Observium] Graphs stopped working after uppgrading to paid subscription
by Gustav UHLANDER 04 Dec '13

04 Dec '13

Hello. I installed the free version to get some feel for the software and after that went for a subscription. When I updated the release the graphs stopped working. I installed JPgraph and don't have the warning but for some reason the Graphs stay blank. Running fresh install of Ubuntu 13.10 I deleted the hole observium folder together with Apache webserver (I imagined I missed a step somewhere or similarly) And then reinstalled from fresh Still cant get the graphs to show. It polls nicely and I get the RRD files but for some reason it seems that they don't end up being graphed. Any ideas? Bästa hälsningar / Best regards,. Gustav Uhlander

SVN Errors - Paid Subscription
by Jason Ross 03 Dec '13

03 Dec '13

My apologies if this has been answered, but I searched and did not find the answer in the archives or the documentation. I'm also a Windows admin and not nearly as familiar with linux or the apache web server so I've been fumbling around the internet quite a bit to get this going. Ubuntu 13.04 Observium Revision 13.10.4585 Followed Ubuntu Installation page exactly. Most everything is working thus far, but from what I've found online, at least one of the items that isn't working was fixed in later versions. I paid the subscription and submitted a username / password hash. After receiving the confirmation email from Adam I tried to use the "svn checkout http://svn.observium.org/svn/observium/trunk/ observium" command to download the latest version. However, I get a couple error messages and I'm wondering if I need to configure the svn client before it will work. Or I may even be entering the username / password incorrectly? Below is the error messages that I receive whether I use an incorrect username/password combo or the one I submitted. "svn: E175002: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'http://svn.observium.org/svn/observium/trunk' " and "svn: E175002 OPTIONS of 'http://svn.observium.org/svn/obserium/trunk' : could not read status line: connection was closed by server (http://svn.observium.org)" Thanks guys, love the product so far!

Updating from before the subscription scheme
by James Bensley 02 Dec '13

02 Dec '13

Hi All, I want to update my Observium install for which I would normally run `svn update` however I haven't updated since the subscription scheme was initiated. Firstly, I'm happy with the subscription option, it's a worthy cause so I will be paying my 100 squid tomorrow or the day after. In the mean though if I run `svn update` now (I'm in a rush to update), will I just hit an svn authentication error and it won't update, or will it update then shit the bed? I don't want to fuck my perfectly happy instance of Observium and the funds aren't mine for a couple of days until the higher ups give it to me. I'm happy to wait though. Cheers, James.

Billing aggregated links not working
by Gerwin Krist 02 Dec '13

02 Dec '13

Hi, We having problems with 95% billing with 2 ports. The graphs are just fine but the 95% percentile value keeps being 0 bpps. billing-calculate.php shows: 12/01/13 @ 00:00:00 to 12/31/13 @ 23:59:59 CDR 90Mbps 0bps 0% Updated! Updated history! Today I upgraded to latest revision but does not fix it either. Other customers are working fine but they do not have combined/multiple links in the billing module. - Gerwin

Ubuntu 13.10 Install
by Pieter De Wit 02 Dec '13

02 Dec '13

Hi Guys, I got my observium working on 13.10. Instead of "Allow from All" in apache, they now need "Require IP", so my config now has the following in the Directory: <Directory "/opt/observium/html/"> Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride All Require ip 192.168 </Directory> Seems to work then. This is all based on the instructions on the wiki page. I will shout if I find more broken things and how to fix. Cheers, Pieter

How to enable bulkwalk?
by Shayne Lebrun 27 Nov '13

27 Nov '13

I'm probably missing something really obvious, but how do you get Observium to use bulkwalk instead of walk? Currently using revision 4586. Trying to get poller times down, running: poller.php -h 51 -d to debug, and it sticks on this command: /usr/bin/snmpwalk -v2c -c 'COMMNAME' -OQUs -m IF-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs 'udp':'x.x.x.x':'161' ifXEntry Which makes sense, as there's an awful lot of interfaces on that particular device. Running that command manually, using time, gives me: real 2m35.743s user 0m0.326s sys 0m0.168s Replacing /usr/bin/snmpwalk with /usr/bin/snmpbulkwalk and running again gives me: real 0m14.914s user 0m0.080s sys 0m0.038s I'd much rather have this take 15 seconds than 110. I could have sworn I saw something somewhere about setting some different snmpwalk flags, but I can't find anything in the docs, the faqs, the archives, the googles. But it's Friday, so, again, I'm probably missing something obvious. Thanks.
