Nagios XI 5 - Double quotes in quick actions

Post by WillemDH »

Hello,

Just noticed some hosts with double quotes in the quick actions. I did not have time yet to investigate, probably some action causing this. Check the screenshots.

I believe this is a bug. I've seen this behavior before on one of my test boxes but totally forgot about it. Now, once you reminded me :), I started digging into it and I was able to recreate it. It seems like that if you have a host added to more than one hostgroup, the double quotes show us under the "Quick Actions" menu (one pair per each "extra" hostgroup). I am going to file an internal bug report after doing some more testing. I am curious to see what you are going to find out. Can you confirm that multiple hostgroup assignments cause the issue in your environment?

Ludmill,

You are correct. It has something to with the number of host / service groups the current detail item is in.

Grtz

If you are willing to give this "patched" component a try, save the old (original) component, download the zip file below. Don't unzip it. Install it as any other component:

Admin->Manage Components->Browse->actions.zip->Upload & Install
actions.zip
Note: I would try it first in a test environment as this hasn't been thoroughly tested. Let me know if this helped.

Ludmill,

I can confirm this is working on my QA server.

Thanks for the feedback, WillemDH! After doing some more testing, we will push it to the next release. Keep my fingers crossed. :)

FYI - I have the quote issue and have no custom actions setup. I tried this component anyway and it made no difference.

I disabled actions and the garbage goes away, so it def is the component causing them.

Thanks for reporting that Bandit, looks like there's a fix above and will hopefully be in next version.

ssax - Yes, I said I tried the fix and it didn't resolve it for me(I may have worded that poorly in my previous post).

Bandit, initially I was able to recreate this bug by adding a host to more than one hostgroup. This was fixed by our devs. However, I never tried adding a service to multiple servicesgroups... Now that I did, the bug is back. :(
Do you have any services added to multiple servicegroups by chance? I wonder if this is what is causing your issue. Anyway, I will be reopening the bug report. Thanks!
