I’m having troubles adding devices recently. In the add host page, it shows blue for SNMP an looks like it’s been added but below that it says that it can’t ping the host. I can SSH to the server and both ping and snmpwalk work. Any ideas?

Pretty sure this is dns related.

I thought that too but I can ping the hostname from the console, just not the web page.

Does add-device.php work?

Possibly something related to apache permissions.

I didn’t see any permissions issues but I noticed that when rebooting, my resolve.conf file kept reverting to old settings. I added the hostname to my hosts file and can add it just fine. Where or when does Observium check the resolve.conf file when booting?
