Sudden undefined variables in actions component

Post by WillemDH »

Hello,

It seems a lot of our actions linking to Nagios Reactor are no longer working. More specific Reactor chains that have default values set in nagios Reactor seems to now have 'undefined' as value. As Reactor does not treat these values as undefined but as a string 'undefined' that actions are no longer working. I would think this has something to do with the fix for the double quote issue decribed here: https://support.nagios.com/forum/viewto ... 16&t=35300

I have tried removing the undefined, setting it back to a blank field, but for some reasons the chain is not getting started anymore with the default values defined in Nagios Reactor.

As I have a lot of quick actions, it would be quite some work to get fill in all the default values for every action. What is my best option to get this fixed? Re-install the old Action component? I have less problems with the doublequotes then the chains not workign at all..

EDIT 1: Attached a screenshot which show the problem for one action (initiate audit). I did found out the blue arrow fills in the default value. So I updated all actions with the working defaults and values which means I'm not going to rollback.

Grtz

Willem

Very strange. I'd like to keep this topic open in case the problem comes back. Please do not reply unless the issue crops back up again, and we'll see if we can replicate it at that point.
