Nagios Support Forum

Hi there! When we run up a new network device and want to monitor bandwidth utilisation on the various interfaces, we are finding that the .rrd files generated by the XI wizard are owned by the apache:apache user/group instead of nagios:nagios. This has the effect of preventing data from being recor...

Pretty sure it was just the ( ' ) in the name of the dashboard. For example, if you create a dashboard called "A Dashboard" "Bob's Dashboard" "Jeff's Dashboard" "Another Dashboard" Then export the backup and import into a new instance, you will run into issues...

Thanks for the update. When you mentioned deleting the dashboard for the user having the problem, you gave me something to test. Sure enough, other users dashboards were working and able to be edited without issue. So I deleted the row from the DB for the problematic user. Unfortunately this deletes...

Any way for me to change the name of the dashboards another way?

Yeah, I waited hours - there are no error messages logging to the files. Nothing in the /var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log either. It all looks good.

There is an apostrophe in one of the dashboards names, but nothing other than that.

I have monitored the *rror_log files whilst attempting to perform modifications to the dashboards, but nothing gets logged to the files. Each action seems to submit a single request that returns a 200 result. Also, in the cases where there is a change to a dashboard, it seems the be unresponsive cli...

Great stuff. Thanks for the help on this, feel free to close this as I now have a new thread open for the dashboards issue.
