A general questions on apps vs sniped extend ?
by Jonas Karlsson 22 Nov '18

22 Nov '18

Hi, I am new to observium and I am trying to learn the "system". Last week I developed a "app" that shows some status. The client side was super simple but it was somewhat cumbersome on the serverside (find all files to update and definitions etc). This week I tried to use snmpd extend to display the same information. This was super simple both on the client and on the server side (adda custom oid) and it works with alerts! My question is therefore in what circumstances are the "apps" useful? At least for my simple example I did not find any benefits of apps over using snmpd extend and a custom OID. Specially as configuring an app is more cumbersome (on the server side). -- Jonas Karlsson Senior Research Engineer Karlstad University SE-651 88 Karlstad, Sweden 📞 +46 54 700 15 64 📞 +46 70 672 06 20 💬 karlsson.karl.jonas 🗝 0x88765911B284F3A6

db error
by Tim Schmidt 20 Nov '18

20 Nov '18

For some reason, I've started receiving "DB Error 2002: No such file or directory" on my Observium installation. Weird thing was that it was literally right in the middle of using the web interface when the error started popping. I've restarted the VM and checked disk space and all looks good. root@tcgobs /opt/observium# ./discovery.php -h none MIB search path: /opt/observium/mibs Cannot find module (LM-SENSORS-MIB): At line 0 in (none) DB Error 2002: No such file or directory Ran the above command line discovery and got this. Not sure what's going on. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Tim

Using port group in Alerts
by Thibault Richard 16 Nov '18

16 Nov '18

Hello, I've defined a working group of ports which indeed contains what I want : Unfortunately I cannot use this group in an alert definition because I 'm able to define a DEVICE group but not a PORT group The only solution to achieve my goal is to define alerts with the same criterium as the ones used for my group definition Did I miss something ? Best Regards Thibault

Observium stop showing pages
by Jan Horacek 16 Nov '18

16 Nov '18

Hi guys, I really need your help. Observium (latest version) stopped to show all sub pages from day to day. I can login into and I see dashboard. On dashboard I`m able to see all graphs and also weather maps are working fine. However if I try open any device or port to see details I`m getting error Not Found The requested URL /health/metric=current/ was not found on this server. Apache configuration didn`t changed at all. Any ideas ? Thanks Jan
