[Nagiosplug-devel] Hostextinfo ignored when configured with database support

[carole verdon]

Hi,

I'm desperate. I don't find solutions to solve my problem.

I use nagios 1.2 and nagmin 2.1.0 to configure hosts and services on 
solaris boxe.

I compiled nagios with mysql database support using the option 
--with-mysql-xdata.

I see my hosts in statusmap but when i want to use hostextinfo to add an 
image or coordinates, nothing happens. And when i choose User-supplied 
coords in the layout method, it says to me that i have not supplied any.

Here that i defined in table 'Host Extended Information' of Nagmin:

  *Template* *Host Name* *Notes URL* *Icon Image* *Icon Image Alt* *VRML 
Image* *Statusmap Image* *2D Coordinates* *3D Coordinates* *Comment*

I have got several problems:

1. The gd2 images don't appear.
If i execute ldd statusmap.cgi, it find the gd library
        libmysqlclient.so.10 =>  
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.10
        libgd.so.2 =>    /usr/local/lib/libgd.so.2

        libjpeg.so.62 =>         /usr/local/lib/libjpeg.so.62
        libc.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libc.so.1
        libz.so.1 (SUNW_1.1) =>  (version not found)
        libcrypt_i.so.1 =>       /usr/lib/libcrypt_i.so.1
        libgen.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libgen.so.1
        libsocket.so.1 =>        /usr/lib/libsocket.so.1
        libnsl.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1
        libXpm.so.4.11 =>        /usr/local/lib/libXpm.so.4.11
        libX11.so.4 =>   /usr/lib/libX11.so.4
        libfreetype.so.6 =>      /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.so.6
        libpng12.so.0 =>         /usr/local/lib/libpng12.so.0
        libz.so.1 (SUNW_1.1) =>  (version not found)

        libz.so.1 (SUNW_1.1) =>  (version not found)
        /usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Blade-100/lib/libc_psr.so.1

I have even made this command: crle -l /usr/lib:/usr/local/lib, but that 
didn't change nothing

# crle

Configuration file [3]: /var/ld/ld.config
  Default Library Path (ELF):   /usr/lib:/usr/local/lib
  Trusted Directories (ELF):    /usr/lib/secure  (system default)

Command line:
  crle -c /var/ld/ld.config -l /usr/lib:/usr/local/lib

2. If i edit the /usr/local/nagios/etc/HostExtInfo.cfg, i see that 
extended informations of hosts are well created:

I tried to add in my cgi.cfg this line:
xedtemplate_config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/HostExtInfo.cfg

But nagios don't take into account.

So, I tried the template method on an old server used to test nagios 
which was configured without database support. So, i add in cgi.cfg this 
line:
xedtemplate_config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/hostextinfo.cfg

And i realized that worked. I saw my hosts in status map as i have 
defined them. So, i suppose that the use of database to store the 
extended information isn't a good method since it don't work.

4. Another problem with nagmin is that if i want to modify coordinates 
of one host for example, that don't works. When i click on 'save' 
button, nothing changes. Even after click on 'activate' button, the 
modifications that i have made don't take into account.


I tried to look source code of statusmap.cgi but it's very complicated. 
I'm not a programmer.

I passed several days to search a solution without result.

Can someone help me, please?

Thanks.

Carole.
