Nagios core and graphs columns

Post by Aikanaro »

Hello,

i am having issues with one of our Nagios servers. Anytime i am clicking on nagiosgraphs and pressing on "+" sign on top right corner, i cannot pick multiple "Periods" of time or multiple "Data Sets". Holding CTRL and pressing doesn't help.

Anytime i open graphs i can only pick either data/Warning/critical but not multiple instances. Same goes for time period: day/Week/Month/Quarter/Year cannot pick multiple graphs.

Nagiosgraph version 1.5.2

Will add some screens below for working and non working servers as an example:
Non-working nagiosgraph
Non-working nagiosgraph
Non-working nagiosgraph
Non-working nagiosgraph

Thanks for help!

Hi tgriep,

no, i couldn't find anything related to that issue on that forum. I posted there a topic as well - but it seems that forum is dead.

Ok, the Nagiosgraph is not one of Nagios projects so there is limited support we can do.
The best thing you can do is to verify that the config files for Nagiosgraph are identical between the good and bad server and to see if there are any errors in the Apache error logs.
One more thing to try is a different browser or to reset and clear out the cache for your web browser to see if that fixes the issue.

Hello tgriep,

i've tried everything that you've listed. And i understand its not Nagios project, but i thought maybe people have had same bad experience as i do and solved that issue. :)

I have found people posting the same issue but no resolution but try and removing it and reinstalling and see if that works. It may be a compile time issue.

tgriep, I am afraid that i am not totally sure how to remove it? i've tried apt-get remove nagiosgraph and also googled it - but no luck. Will see what are other options, maybe you have an idea?

I recall a similar issue from a while back:
https://support.nagios.com/forum/viewto ... =7&t=42711

It had something to do with the underlying html. My vague recollection is that recompiling the CGIs to use <select multiple> instead of <select> made everything work a bit better, though I don't know if that will solve your specific problem.
