NagVis does not Provide Background Option when Creating Map

[rmc123]

I am trying to create a new NagVis map with a background image. I am able to successfully upload the image file.

I have the ability to upload and delete backgrounds under NagVis' Options > Manage Backgrounds. However when I go to Options > Manage Maps > Create Map there is no option to add a background as I am seeing in multiple online NagVis tutorials. The only options I have under Create Map are ID (Internal Name), Alias, and Map Type (drop down menu - using option Regular Map)

Nagios Version is 5.5.2

I am not sure how to check the NagVis version

Have you tried going to Edit Map > Map Options > Appearance > map_image > select your image (background), and clicking on "Save"?

Edit Map is not an option for me either. Is that under the Actions menu? I seem to be missing that entire menu.

When you login NagVis and click on your newly added map, you should be able to view 4 menus on top - Open, Actions, Edit Map, and Options...

I wonder if for some reason NagVis didn't upgrade for you to the latest version. What is the output of the following command?

Code: Select all

grep -i const_version /usr/local/nagvis/share/server/core/defines/global.php

[rmc123]

define('CONST_VERSION', '1.9.8')

Go to Options > Manage Maps > Create Map, type "test" in the ID (Internal Name) text-box, leave Map Type = Regular map (don't change the default), and click on Create. What menus do you see now? You should see Open, Actions, Edit Map, and Options. Can you show us a screenshot of this page?

Do you have the same issues when you log in as nagiosadmin?

Log in as nagiosadmin, click on NagVis > User menu > Manage Users, select your user from the Name drop-down menu under the Modify User section, and check to see if the user is defined Administrators role.

This is what the NagVis interface looks like from the nagiosadmin account, and across every other admin account we have:

Have you created a "test" map as I suggested? If you did, can you click on it and see if the Edit Map menu shows up?

Ah, I see it now, thank you.

Great! Is it OK then to lock this topic?
