You need to point it at a mysql.cnf that matches Observium’s expected, not the system mysql.cnf

Mine looks like this:

<?php

# Observium MySQL Agent Script -> Config File
# (c) 2012, Tom Laermans for Observium (www.observium.org)

$mysql_user = ‘observium_mon’;
$mysql_pass = ‘MySecretPassword’;
?>

R

Hi,
 
Thanks for that - ok, I’ve updated the script and SVN up’d. New error :)
 
Log now shows this instead:

2m 30s      Package removed: The extension MySQL
2m 30s      Package installed: Connect ((1045)) version Error
 
Running the (new) script locally, I now get:

The debian.cnf file it speaks of is this:

[mysql_upgrade]

Any ideas?

Hi,

 by first, your mysql agent script is too old, it not support mysqli extension.
 second, I added additional "fix" to mysql script (in r7956) for prevent 
 unexpected script messages before and instead app identification.

svn up
and use new mysql script!

Hi,
 
Thanks - I’ve attached the unix-agent debug now.
 
As for the scripts, it has the following installed locally (from many years ago!):
 
:/usr/lib/observium_agent/local# ls -lh

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2.9K Oct 10  2013 apache

From an entire poller run in debug, the only place I can find the word ‘extension’ is indeed in the mysql output, so a leak from there would make sense as suggested.
 
I’ve also checked the prerequisites for the MySQL agent and they are all there still after the upgrade – BUT – I can see from the graphs that it is now broken:
 
<image001.jpg>
 
 
In the agent debug, line 1899 has “The MySQL extension is not loaded"” – but I can’t see why/why/how this is broken since the 16.04 upgrade.
 
I’m going to assume that if I fix the MySQL agent, then the arch issue will go away.
 
So, any ideas on the MySQL problem?
 
Cheers!

What is the Unix agent returning on this host?

(Did you install distro and/or os scripts?)

Hi – thanks, here you go :)

 

Only place I can find the word extension is here?

 

[0;36m o [1;37mMySQL               [0m 5.7.12-0ubuntu1.1 (extension: mysqli 5.0.12-dev)

 

Interestingly, when I run the debug of the one module by itself, the result for “Arch” is null.

 

Yet when I run all the modules together (copy attached to my first email) it returns “extension” instead?!

 

So I can produce a different behaviour depending on whether I debug just the system module, or all the modules. A normal polling run obviously produces the “extension” result, I assume because it runs all the modules.

 

My guess would be that there is a variable which is being left from one of the modules which is leaking into the system module?

 

Here is the section of the full debug log, which returns “extension”:

Run poller with -m system -d for this host and see what it says. Its probably parsing an error into that field!

Hi,
 
Just completed a release upgrade on Observium itself (14.04 to 16.04) and now it is reporting its own architecture as ‘extension’.
 
Wouldn’t be an issue really, but every single time it polls it updates the event log like this:
 
 
I’ve attached a debug output of the poller as this may help to track it down.
 
Interestingly, a lot of our other servers run 16.04 now but it only reports this for ‘itself’ – not the others.
 
Anyone have any ideas? Cheers!
