Configuring map interface on new observium installation
Hi,
I have just installed & configured observium for the first time. The first two devices are added and seems working, but I'm having problem displaying these devices on the map. All the time there is a blue sign on the middle on Atlantic ocean, it doesn't matter what I configure as device location.
Please any idea how to configure the map? I have tried all the possible configurations at /opt/observium/config.php settings but with no success. This installation is behind a proxy server, but I have allowed all the traffic from observium host and I don't see any traffic from this host towards proxy server.
thanks in advance, Andi Qirjazi
Andi, I believe the map location is based on the SNMP location data from your devices. If you do not have this setup, then you can go to your device and edit the settings manually. There is a override button to put the address directly on the device. This should help your blue button move from the ocean to your location.

Have you configured the proxy?
$config['http_proxy'] = "yourproxy:80"; // Proxy for HTTP/HTTPS requests (e.g. for geocoding) $config['proxy_user'] = ''; // Proxy username (basic auth) $config['proxy_password'] = ''; // Proxy password

Hi Aron & Adam,
Thanks for the reply & advises.
Yes I have configured the location at device SNMP settings as follow: R_TR#sh run | s snmp snmp-server community aaaaaaa RO snmp-server ifindex persist snmp-server location Berlin, DE snmp-server contact bbbbbbbbbb
at Observium main page, at location tab, is listed Berlin, DE (or Rome, IT another device) but no indication on the map for both devices.
regarding proxy server configuration, at \opt\observium\config.php file I have the following settings: //configure proxy server settings $config['http proxy'] = "myproxy:8080"; with no username and password, because I have allowed all the traffic from observium host and it has internet access, because I did manually update and it worked normally.
Please could you send me a sample of a working map configuration?
I have the following configuration regarding geolocation at config.php file:
// $config['frontpage']['map']['region'] = " https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/gall$ $config['geocoding']['enable'] =TRUE; $config['geocoding']['dns'] = FALSE; $config['location_menu_geocoded'] = FALSE; $config['geocoding']['api'] = ' www.googleapis.com/geolocation/v1/geolocate?key=aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa';
I even tried with just 'google' as API, but it doesn't change anything.
thanks in advance, Andi
