Email setup in Config.php
Hi,
I have been using Observium for about 1 year successfully and recently, approximately 3mth ago, I subscribed to the paid version, upgraded via SVN and copied my config.php. I do not have working email alerts at the moment and would like to know what needs to be changed to get this working again. Below is a print of my config.php file. Please advise me as to what needs to be changed to get email working again.
Config.php:
<?php
## Have a look in includes/defaults.inc.php for examples of settings you can set here. DO NOT EDIT defaults.inc.php!
// Database config $config['db_host'] = "localhost"; $config['db_user'] = "myuesrname"; $config['db_pass'] = "mypassword"; $config['db_name'] = "observium";
// Location $config['install_dir'] = "/opt/observium";
// Thie should *only* be set if you want to *force* a particular hostname/port // It will prevent the web interface being usable form any other hostname #$config['base_url'] = "http://observium.company.com";
// Default community list to use when adding/discovering $config['snmp']['community'] = array("public");
// Authentication Model $config['auth_mechanism'] = "mysql"; // default, other options: ldap, http-auth, please see documentation for config help
// Enable alerter // $config['poller-wrapper']['alerter'] = TRUE;
// Set up a default alerter (email to a single address)
// SNMP Settings $config['snmp']['timeout'] = 1000; # timeout in ms $config['snmp']['retries'] = 6; # how many times to retry the query
//Ping Settings $config['ping']['timeout'] = 2000; # timeout in ms $config['ping']['retries'] = 10; # how many times to retry the query
//Alert Settings $config['alerts']['email']['default'] = "myemail@domain.co.nz"; $config['alerts']['email']['from'] = "observium.dev < myeamil@domain.co.nz>"; $config['alerts']['email']['default_only'] = TRUE; $config['alerts']['email']['enable'] = FALSE; $config['uptime_warning'] = "14400"; ## Time to display reboot warning //Poller and Discovery Modules
//Syslog settings $config['enable_syslog'] = 1; $config['syslog_filter'] = array("last message repeated", "Connection from UDP: [", "ipSystemStatsTable node ipSystemStatsOutFragOKs not implemented", "diskio.c: don't know how to handle"); ## Ignore some crappy stuff from SNMP daemon
//Geocoding Configuration
// End config.php

My best guess is that you have not un-commented this field:
// Enable alerter $config['poller-wrapper']['alerter'] = TRUE;
Do you think that is it?

Hi Guys, It could also be the cron entry needs to be updated to use the poller-wrapper instead of calling the poller directly. Check the cron section of the installation relevant to your platform (http://www.observium.org/wiki/Installation) Cheers, Nathan
