Auto-Discovery Bug in latest OVA from NagiosXI Downlod Page

Post by deby23456 »

ImageHello,

I wanted to report a bug found when you import the latest ova file "nagiosxi-5.9.2-64.ova" from the Nagios Download Page: https://www.nagios.com/downloads/nagios-xi/ or https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/get ... sxi-ova-64

After opening the OVA (I used ESX, and workstation both had the same problem), and starting up the server (regardless of trial license or purchased license), after you log in for the first time, and:

* Log in to the page as default nagioadmin account
* Click Configure >> Configuration Wizards
* Select the Auto-Discovery
* It will spin forever, and the right pane will never load the Wizard, and just have a white login screen

Attached is a screenshot of the issue, along with the client side debug message. I tried it, same behaviour with firefox/google chrome/ edge.

Please fix the ova as soon as possible.

SEE ATTACHED PHOTO.

Latest version (with the BUG) is: https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/get ... sxi-ova-64

Thank you for your kind comments. While this is a nice idea / and you can write your own, it is not related to my question. The default OVA installation has a bug.

I would like to ask the Nagios Team to fix the issue. The default OVA of 5.9.2 does not work.

I tried a older OVA with 5.7.5, and that works, but to anyone who uses the public download page, the OVA is broken, and this issue needs to be fixed.

All,

We found it in the docs.

BUG: The link in the CCM Wizards > "Autodiscovery" no longer works in any versions of Nagios. <--- THE NAGIOS TEAM NEEDS TO FIX THIS


WORKAROUND: The link on the left side works for autodiscovery so just use that one. I dont know why, but this was documented very poorly, see photo. Thanks, and hope this helps anyone with this issue...

Hey @deby23456

Have you tried any of the recent OVA's and are having the same issue? I just loaded up a 5.11.1 ova and the auto discovery didn't seem to have the issue you are having so this may already be fixed.
