Make a local MTA do authenticated SMTP and TLS.

There is a log trace  where we could debug the SMTP/TLS configuration ?

Yes observium Alert check and association is OK.

 

Why let smtp auth on a deprecated configuration example ? We have a lot of applications who use embedded SMTP with TLS with no problem and with a log stack when authentication goes wrong.

 

MTA configuration on linux are source of problem too and could add a SPOF on our monitoring application.

Have you made a contact and associated it with an alert check?

Is there actually an alert table entry with the id of 1?

We normally recommend that people don't use SMTP, because it /always/ seems to cause problems. A local MTA on the Observium server is the recommended way.

Ok,

 

I need to debug SMTP with TLS and User/login authentification for observium ( actually mail doesn’t work) . There is my config.php :

 

 

// Enable alerter (not available in CE)

$config['poller-wrapper']['alerter'] = TRUE;

 

// Set up a default alerter (email to a single address)

 

$config['email']['enable']        = TRUE;

$config['email']['from']           = 'dr07.monitoring@cnrs.fr';

$config['email']['default']        = NULL;

$config['email']['default_only']    = FALSE;

 

 

$config['email']['backend']         = 'SMTP SERVER';

$config['email']['smtp_host']       = 'XXXXX';

$config['email']['smtp_port']       = 587;

$config['email']['smtp_timeout']    = 10;

$config['email']['smtp_secure']     = 'tls';

$config['email']['smtp_auth']       = TRUE;

 

$config['email']['smtp_username']   = ‘Observium EMAIL';

$config['email']['smtp_password']   = 'PASSWORD';

 

 

I have two Check alert :  “device_status equals 1 * *” and “device_status equals 0 * *”

 

If I try test_alert script “ ./test_alert.php -a 1 –dd” I have no output concerning SMTP protocol only SQL query.

 

There is a beter way ?

 

 

regards

Hi,

The notification system has changed a lot since those docs were written. We now use test_alert.php, which takes the argument of -a and an alert entry id, and will generate notifications for all contacts associated with that alert entry.

Hello,

 

I follow the documentation for configuring SMTP mail : http://www.observium.org/docs/config_options/

 

 

For testing , it seem to have a “test_mail.php”, I’m on Observium Professional 0.16.5.7857 but nothing on my root directory.

 

 

 

Pierrick
