Re: [Observium] No valid device specified

I should have known better than to approve a list join half an hour after someone takes a hissy fit...

I've never been treated this way on any other mailing list in over 20 years, and I am on many lists both big and small.
I did state what version I am running, in my second follow up email
sent
1 minute after my first one.
Three other people provided constructive answers based on the info I provided, including identifying that a fix to your software is necessary. Obviously I provided enough information for them to help.
You did nothing but denigrate me.

This isn't an official support avenue, it's a public mailing list.
All of the usual conventions you'd expect on a public mailing list
apply.
It is your responsibility to provide all of the possibly relevant information when you ask your question, rather than relying on other people to guess or waste their time asking questions.
People here answer questions every day. It may not seem like hard
work
to you to ask someone what version they're running, but it becomes
much
more significant when there are multiple people per day asking
questions
without providing sufficient supporting data to provide an answer.

But
when I click on the device name for details I get:
