Download options in graph explorer have a permission issue

Post by TBT »

Recently upgraded to XI 5.6.5, when viewing a graph and then using the hamburger options menu to download (PDF,JPEG,etc) the following error is returned.

Couldn't create temporary file. Check that the directory permissions for the /temp directory are set to 777.

Submitting this, just in case permissions on the dir were changed by the XI version upgrade.

Please advise,
Nagios XI 2024R2.2.1 (8 Servers)
Nagios Fusion 2024R1.0.2

Hi @TBT,

I've been able to re-create this on my test system and I'll get a bug report filed. Thanks for letting us know, and in the meantime you can change the permissions on that directory by running the following command.

Code: Select all

chmod 777 /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/highcharts/exporting-server/temp
