change to html/includes/authenticate.inc.php broke apache's AuthBasicFake . [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

Adam, First up, this happened a long time ago. It's just taken till now to find why it broke (cause i have free time, i'm testing 0.16.9.8118 and found the error again) The problem lies in line 200 of html/includes/authenticate.inc.php (v0.16.9.8118) if (!$_SESSION['authenticated'] && (authenticate($_SESSION['username'], $auth_password) || // login/password in older versions, "$auth_password" was "$_SESSION['password']". by replacing "$auth_password" with "$_SESSION['password']"., AuthBasicFake works again. I can't see where "$auth_password" is initialized but it's not my code so i'll not assume too much more than that. thanks Peter Hine Senior Technical Support Engineer (Servers) Corporate Services | Federal Court of Australia ********************************************************************** The information contained in this e-mail (including any attachments) is for the exclusive use of the addressee.

Potential RRD Cache bug with Unix Agent / Applications
by Andy Lemin 25 Oct '16

25 Oct '16

Hi, Not sure if this is a bug, or a cannot fix, but; If rrdcached is running and "$config['rrdcached'] = "unix:/var/run/rrdcached.sock" is configured in config.php, the graphs for the Unix Agent do not work. I can understand why Smokeping does not work if it does not know how to read and write from the unix socket (so we created a link to SmokePing in the Globe menu). But I cannot think why the Observium UNIX Agent does not work, as that is a part of Observium, and the rest of observium works with rrdcached. I can only guess that the UNIX Agent poller is not writing to the UNIX socket and is still trying to write to /opt/observium/rrd/, however when I disable RRDCache and remove the rrdcached line from config.php, all the old data appears. This makes me think that the UNIX Agent poller is writting to the socket correctly, and it is just Observium itself that is failing to revert to reading from the UNIX socket for Applications etc. Cheers, Andy.

Update Issue
by Josh Hopper 24 Oct '16

24 Oct '16

Hello, I updated my Ubuntu VM from version 14.04 to 16.04 (LTS). After doing so PHP was not working as Observium's GUI wouldn't load. I updated PHP and PHP MYSQLI accordingly. I'm on v7 now. I was able to get to the login screen and login, however, after, I get a blank window. [image: Inline image 1] Code behind it looks odd. <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <base href="http://svr-observium.noc.dynamicinfastructure.com/" /> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1" />  <link href="css/observium.css <http://svr-observium.noc.dynamicinfastructure.com/css/observium.css>" rel=" stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <link href="css/jquery.qtip.min.css <http://svr-observium.noc.dynamicinfastructure.com/css/jquery.qtip.min.css>" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <link href="css/svg_png.css <http://svr-observium.noc.dynamicinfastructure.com/css/svg_png.css>" rel=" stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <link href="css/flags.css <http://svr-observium.noc.dynamicinfastructure.com/css/flags.css>" rel=" stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <link href="css/c3.min.css <http://svr-observium.noc.dynamicinfastructure.com/css/c3.min.css>" rel=" stylesheet" type="text/css" />   <script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.min.js <http://svr-observium.noc.dynamicinfastructure.com/js/jquery.min.js>"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/bootstrap.min.js <http://svr-observium.noc.dynamicinfastructure.com/js/bootstrap.min.js>"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/observium.js <http://svr-observium.noc.dynamicinfastructure.com/js/observium.js>"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/d3.min.js <http://svr-observium.noc.dynamicinfastructure.com/js/d3.min.js>"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/c3.min.js <http://svr-observium.noc.dynamicinfastructure.com/js/c3.min.js>"></script>   <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="300" /> <title>Observium</title> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/observium-icon.png <http://svr-observium.noc.dynamicinfastructure.com/images/observium-icon.png>" /> Like, where is the rest? :) It seems Observium is still running as I can run a discovery and poller from the command line and it runs fine. I did an svn update too to be on the latest version of Observium. Thanks for the help! -- JOSHUA HOPPER NETWORK ENGINEER 1-828-558-1403 Joshua.Hopper(a)broadplex.net www.broadplex.net

running observium on freebsd
by Simon Smith 22 Oct '16

22 Oct '16

Hi All, this is a random question, has anyone got observium running correctly on freebsd? managed to get it all setup and running, panels fine, add devices fine, poll device manually, etc only issue I’m having is i can’t get the cronjob working for every 5mins? i can see from the cron log in /var/log its running the poller correctly Oct 18 04:05:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[49554]: (root) CMD (/opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 2 >> /dev/null) Oct 18 04:10:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[50385]: (root) CMD (/usr/libexec/atrun) Oct 18 04:10:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[50387]: (root) CMD (/opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 2 >> /dev/null) Oct 18 04:15:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[51227]: (root) CMD (/usr/libexec/atrun) Oct 18 04:15:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[51228]: (root) CMD (/opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 2 >> /dev/null) Oct 18 04:20:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[52076]: (root) CMD (/usr/libexec/atrun) Oct 18 04:20:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[52079]: (root) CMD (/opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 2 >> /dev/null) Oct 18 04:25:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[52917]: (root) CMD (/usr/libexec/atrun) Oct 18 04:25:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[52918]: (root) CMD (/opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 2 >> /dev/null) Oct 18 04:30:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[53752]: (root) CMD (/usr/libexec/atrun) Oct 18 04:30:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[53753]: (root) CMD (/opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 2 >> /dev/null) however no data gets inserted into the db, but if i run the command manually as root, it inserts stuff fine? the only thing i can think of is the php is running apache which then runs as www not root would this have an issue maybe? regards Simon

quering raid status on adaptec, lsi, 3w cli
by Sebastian Klute 21 Oct '16

21 Oct '16

Is there a way to get the current raid status of the common controllers? We are using several LSI 9xxxx series some adaptec 6405 8405 and from time to time 3ware controllers. I've noticed that there is a discovery module for raid but if enabled nothing happens. Looking into some codes even through the unix agent there is only cfggen but no support for megacli like stuff. Any workarounds? Other methods to get the status?

Re: [Observium] Carel / pCo Discovery

Hi, Thanks for that, I’ve selected one host and disabled the MIB here (only): I have left the Sensors module (and all others) enabled and then re-run the discovery – output attached. FWIW – in the non-debug mode, it still mentions UNCDZ (twice actually): ##### Module Start: sensors ##### ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB o UNCDZ-MIB temp-amb [] temp-ext [] temp-mand [] temp-circ [] temp-ac [] umid-amb [] hdiff [] hu-diff [.] hset [.] hset-sm [.] t-set-sm [] t-set-c-sm [] t-cw-dh [] t-set-cw [] t-rc-es [] t-rc-est [] t-set-lm [.] hu-set [] hu-set-sm [] o UNCDZ-MIB t-set [] t-diff [] t-set-c [] <snip>...
