[Nagios-users] Whoops! Could not read object configuration data!

2011-07-02 Thread crishna 
Hi Community!
 
i have a little problem here with Nagios (web interface).
 
i have the following message from all menu items from the left pannel :
 
Whoops!
Error: Could not read object configuration data!
Here are some things you should check in order to resolve this error:
Verify configuration options using the -v command-line option to check for 
errors. 
Check the Nagios log file for messages relating to startup or status data 
errors.
Make sure you read the documentation on installing, configuring and running 
Nagios thoroughly before continuing. If all else fails, try sending a message 
to one of the mailing lists. More information can be found at 
http://www.nagios.org.
 
i did struggled the past 2 days with this issue. going over all config files i 
could think off, and even installed a VM with a linux to compare configs. but 
still the same issue...
i am running 
fedora 15 64 bits, 2.6.38.8-32.fc15.x86_64
nagios 3.2.3 october 03, 2010
i think nagios is working fine, because i get the email warnings of my failed 
servers/services.
the nagios -v command returns no error at all.
my guess is that httpd (apache) is in cause here. i tried the default config 
from the RPM packages, no luck.
when i installed it on the VM, it worked like a charm, so i tried the 
nagios.cfg, httpd.conf, cgi.conf, well all config frommy VM to my server, same 
issue.
next step, i looked the file ownerships, properties and applied the same 
ownership settings from the VM to my server, still the same problem.
i tried also to put debug message very verbose on nagios and apache, nothing 
showed up.
my login is working fine as well from the nagios web page, username password 
are valids.
anyone came accros this issue ?
if requested, i can provide all my configs. it used to work few weeks ago, but 
my raid array broke so i had to reinstall rfom scratch... since then, something 
seems deffective.
any help would be appreciated!
best regards, Francois

PNP version is 0.6.13 and you are totally right about the config_local.php
file. Modified in that one and I see it in all graphs.

The only opened issue for now is the pdf background file.

Thanks a lot!






Which pnp4nagios version do you use?

I assume its 0.6.13

PNP web interface reads config files in the following order.

pnp4nagios/etc/config_local.php
pnp4nagios/etc/config.php

config_local.php is used to store your own changes and will not be
overwritten on updates.
config.php is the default config file.

I have managed to put the text into the graphs ( watermark) by adding the
option directly into the respective php file ( e.g. check_snmp_int.php).
All the php files seem to have already an $opt[1] line which overrides the
general options.

I am still stucked with the PDF background file however.

Thanks once again!



I can't say I've ever tried that.  I would think you need to append to
rather than replace the graph options though, so wouldn't it be ..

  $conf['graph_opt'] .= " --watermark 'Test'"

(note the ".=" rather than just "=" and the space added before --watermark
)

I don't have my Nagios system to hand at the moment so can't take a
look myself.  Remind me on Monday if you're still stuck and I'll have
a play with that myself.

Another option is to create some graphs outside of PNP altogether (but
using the .rrd databases created by PNP).  See:

http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/doc/rrdcgi.en.html

Again, I can dig out some examples for you if you remind me during the
week (or do a search - I'm sure we've covered this topic before either
here or on the PNP email list some time in the last few months).

Hello again,

Can you please give some guidelines how to customize the PNP4Nagios
background page? I have tried using the $conf['graph_opt'] = "--watermark
'Test'" option, but it does not take it. Also modifications done on the
background.pdf file are not updated. Already restarted apache and nagios
services. In general I would like to add some logos and/or text.

Thank you!

I have managed to put the text into the graphs ( watermark) by adding the
option directly into the respective php file ( e.g. check_snmp_int.php).
All the php files seem to have already an $opt[1] line which overrides the
general options.

I am still stucked with the PDF background file however.

Thanks once again!



I can't say I've ever tried that.  I would think you need to append to
rather than replace the graph options though, so wouldn't it be ..

  $conf['graph_opt'] .= " --watermark 'Test'"

(note the ".=" rather than just "=" and the space added before --watermark
)

I don't have my Nagios system to hand at the moment so can't take a
look myself.  Remind me on Monday if you're still stuck and I'll have
a play with that myself.

Another option is to create some graphs outside of PNP altogether (but
using the .rrd databases created by PNP).  See:

http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/doc/rrdcgi.en.html

Again, I can dig out some examples for you if you remind me during the

Hello again,

Can you please give some guidelines how to customize the PNP4Nagios
background page? I have tried using the $conf['graph_opt'] = "--watermark
'Test'" option, but it does not take it. Also modifications done on the
background.pdf file are not updated. Already restarted apache and nagios
services. In general I would like to add some logos and/or text.

Thank you!

Well done.

Yes, you can create a custom template.

Take a look under /usr/local/pnp4nagios/share/templates.dist and find
the file named check_snmp_int.php .  Copy it to the directory
/usr/local/pnp4nagios/share/templates and then edit it to get the
wider line.

For example the line which reads:

$def[1] .= "LINE

Please be more precise!

which pdf file did you modify?

pnp4nagios/etc/background.pdf? Is this the one?

Is this file also registered in your pnp4nagios/etc/config_local.php

#
# Use this file as PDF background.
#
$conf['background_pdf'] = '/usr/local/pnp4nagios/etc/background.pdf' ;

What I am trying to achieve is now modifying a bit the pdf generated page (
add an additional logo, put some text, aso). Saw that the background page
is called background.pdf, so I have modified that, but when generating PDF
I still see the original background page, not the modified one.

Ok,

Here is what I got so far:

1. If I run the command: ./check_snmp_int.pl -H 192.168.2.1 -C public -2 
-n GigabitEthernet0/24 -fY -kqB -g -w 60,60,100,100,10,10 -c 
80,80,200,200,20,20 -d 5 , I get the following output:
GigabitEthernet0/24:UP (16.9Kbps/26.2Kbps/0.0/0.0/0.0/0.0):1 UP: OK | 
'GigabitEthernet0/24_in_bps'=16899;6;8;0;10 
'GigabitEthernet0/24_out_bps'=26237;6;8;0;10

Before getting a correct output I run the command several times. The 
initial output is GigabitEthernet0/24:UP No usable data on file (102 rows) 
:(1 UP): UNKNOWN

2. Defined the following command in nagios:

define command{
