I believe I found and fixed this issue in commit 4e6eb7c. The problem was that the next check time for services was always getting an additional random delay of between 0 and the check interval. This should only have been true when the next check time is further in the future because of a check time...

Thanks again for reporting issues with the JSON CGI. Andy is correct that the percent signs were not being escaped. Commit 04c80dd appears to resolve this issue. I've tested each of the cases you listed and they now display correctly. Please test the commit and let us know whether it works for you.

I found 2 instances where 8k buffers were used for strings in the JSON code and have converted them to use dynamically allocated buffers, so the only limitation now is the amount of RAM on the system. This update is in commit 6081644. Check it out and let us know whether it does what you need.

Janice,

I have just committed and pushed an update to the code so that the values of custom variables are now displayed in the object JSON CGI. The commit id is 4f40874 and it will be in the next release.

Thanks for the reports and for using the API. Let us know if you find anything else.

I generally see that message when I'm using Sun's make. The way I get around it is to run 'MAKE=gmake ./configure' and then use gmake everywhere I would use make (i.e 'gmake all'). In your case you may need to substitute '/home1/cho6955/bin/make' for 'gmake' .

The JSON CGIs are currently still parsing the status.dat and objects.cache files. We are looking at using the new features in Core 4 to retrieve this information, but that hasn't been implemented yet. As for the reasons behind the JSON CGIs, while there is some overlap with other projects, it is not...

Processing of external commands is now much faster because it is done with a special command processing worker and the commands are processed as soon as they are received. For this reason, the command pipe should be used for passive check results. The old results file reaper is deprecated and will b...

As best I can tell, this was a precautionary change. I don't see any reports in the tracker where the problems Andreas cited actually occurred. I've looked over the code, although admittedly not as in depth as I want to, and I don't see how this could happen. Unless anyone has seen the problem of th...
