Hi,
Just tried to add a new device (r5478) but it’s failing with no feedback, even at the command line.
root@OBSERVIUM:/opt/observium # php add_device.php server.name.domain Observium v0.14.5.5478 Add Device(s)
Try to add server.name.domain: Trying v2c community xyz ... root@OBSERVIUM:/opt/observium#
It was ok a couple of days ago and I’m not sure how to try to diagnose this further as there is no feedback either at the command line or the web interface (which just says “Trying v2c community xyx …” the same as the command line does).
To rule out a duff device I removed an existing working device and tried to re-add it. Fails with the same error also and I’m unable to re-add that device.
Any pointers please?
Cheers!

Seems to work fine for me:
root@observium:/opt/observium# ./add_device.php insider.redacted.frii.com redacted v2c Observium v0.14.5.5478 Add Device(s)

Hi,
I’ve just fixed it by forcing SVN to re-update from scratch and putting the config back - it’s now working. Unfortunately that means I’m not really clear on what the cause was :(
If it happens again is there a way I can collect some debug type output from the discovery engine?
Cheers,

Hey Robert,
The -d flag on discovery.php will enable debugging output. You can filter this on a per host basis by using it in conjunction with the -h flag. Example:
root@observium:/opt/observium# ./discovery.php -h insider.redacted.frii.com -d

Hi Robert,
Unfortunately add_device doesn't take -d etc parameters yet.
You could try going to the add host page on the web, adding /debug to the url, then submitting the form. It should run stuff in debug mode... but it sounds like it didn't like an error in a PHP file, as the entire thing aborted. If it's working now, I can't say what it is/was...
