I have version 1.3 up and running and migrated a version 1.2.3 config and have found what I think may be an issue.  In Nagios Core the following links return an error message of “it appears you do not have permission to view…”.
A screen shot is attached.

The following links seem to be involved:
1)Network Outages
2) Process Info
3) Scheduling Queue – This is the one I use most often
4) Notifications
5) Even Log
6) View Config

Thanks for letting me know. Can you please email a copy of your backup.nems file to robbie@category5.tv and I'll confirm and patch the bug?

Thanks!

[Robbie Ferguson]

Further: is it possible you initialized NEMS before restoring your migrator data with a different username?

[kd4pyr]

I don't think so.  Ran the nems-init and created the user account.
Rebooted.
logged in using the created account.
Then ran the nems-restore.

It wasn't you - it was me  :p

You found a nasty wee bug that broke this for everyone - thanks man!

Please run:

Code:

sudo nems-quickfix

And then try Nagios Core again. Work?

[kd4pyr]

There is joy in Mudville, the might Robbie hit a home run...

OK wrong season for baseball analogies.  The quickfix is not quick, but it does the job.  All is well with the permissions in Nagios Core.

As always, thanks.

[Robbie Ferguson]

Great!

Yes, I'm pretty sure that the manual warns that nems-quickfix is not quick  :p  hahaha!

Quick as in, you don't have to do much, and it fixes stuff.

Glad it worked! Thanks for pointing out the bug! If we had a point system, you'd be up at least 3 points for this, and about a million points for everything else  :p

Hi guys, ive done what you say, Nagios Core has reverted to normal, but then...

   

Any ideas?

Thank you.

[Robbie Ferguson]

Oh dear! This does not look like a related issue, though nems-quickfix may have pulled an update to nems-nconf that may have caused this. Are you on NEMS 1.3?

That said, I have not pushed any updates to nems-nconf which would cause this... so I wonder if it's simply your MariaDB service failed to restart correctly during the nems-quickfix (is there any chance you pushed CTRL-C before nems-quickfix was done?)

Just to be sure, can you please do this?

Code:

sudo systemctl status mysqld

If it says anything other than "active (running) type:

Code:

sudo systemctl restart mysqld

And then try nConf again.

If that isn't it, can you please create a new backup.nems migrator backup and send it to robbie@category5.tv? Hoping it'll shed some light on what happened and I'll try to have a fix ready within a day or two.

Cheers,
Robbie
