Hi,

I have been using Observium for about 1 year successfully and recently,
approximately 3mth ago, I subscribed to the paid version, upgraded via SVN
and copied my config.php. I do not have working email alerts at the moment
and would like to know what needs to be changed to get this working again.
Below is a print of my config.php file. Please advise me as to what needs
to be changed to get email working again.

Config.php:

<?php

## Have a look in includes/defaults.inc.php for examples of settings you
can set here. DO NOT EDIT defaults.inc.php!

// Database config
$config['db_host'] = "localhost";
$config['db_user'] = "myuesrname";
$config['db_pass'] = "mypassword";
$config['db_name'] = "observium";

// Location
$config['install_dir'] = "/opt/observium";

// Thie should *only* be set if you want to *force* a particular
hostname/port
// It will prevent the web interface being usable form any other hostname
#$config['base_url'] = "http://observium.company.com";

// Default community list to use when adding/discovering
$config['snmp']['community'] = array("public");

// Authentication Model
$config['auth_mechanism'] = "mysql"; // default, other options: ldap,
http-auth, please see documentation for config help

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

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

// SNMP Settings
$config['snmp']['timeout'] = 1000; # timeout in ms
$config['snmp']['retries'] = 6; # how many times to retry the
query

//Ping Settings
$config['ping']['timeout'] = 2000; # timeout in ms
$config['ping']['retries'] = 10; # how many times to retry the
query

//Alert Settings
$config['alerts']['email']['default'] = "myemail@domain.co.nz";
$config['alerts']['email']['from'] = "observium.dev <
myeamil@domain.co.nz>";
$config['alerts']['email']['default_only'] = TRUE;
$config['alerts']['email']['enable'] = FALSE;
$config['uptime_warning'] = "14400"; ## Time to display
reboot warning
//Poller and Discovery Modules

//Syslog settings
$config['enable_syslog'] = 1;
$config['syslog_filter'] = array("last message repeated", "Connection from
UDP: [",
"ipSystemStatsTable node
ipSystemStatsOutFragOKs not implemented",
"diskio.c: don't know how to handle"); ##
Ignore some crappy stuff from SNMP daemon

//Geocoding Configuration

// End config.php

My best guess is that you have not un-commented this field:

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

Do you think that is it?

Hi Guys,
It could also be the cron entry needs to be updated to use the poller-wrapper instead of calling the poller directly.
Check the cron section of the installation relevant to your platform (http://www.observium.org/wiki/Installation)
Cheers,
Nathan
