Upgrade Nagios XI 2.1 -> 3.2

[jsmurphy]

Hi Guys,

It's been a while since I last managed to break Nagios but the new updater has managed to trip me up. While running the upgrade script on our test server I ran into the following error message:

Code: Select all

make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/nagiosxi/subcomponents/nsca/nsca-2.9.1/src'

*** Compile finished ***

If the compile finished without any errors, you should
find client and server binaries in the src/ subdirectory.

Read the README file for more information on installing
the binaries, creating configuration files, and using
the server and client.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./install", line 19, in <module>
    filename , urlobject = urllib.urlretrieve( url )

I figured it might be trying to grab something from the internet so I configured the box for proxy auth but got a similar but still largely unhelpful error message:

Code: Select all

make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/nagiosxi/subcomponents/nsca/nsca-2.9.1/src'

    raise IOError, ('url error', 'invalid proxy for %s' % type, proxy)
IOError: [Errno url error] invalid proxy for http: 'username:password@proxy:port'

I then just did a quick curl and wget test to verify that I can actually get out to the internet with those creds and that worked as expected:

Code: Select all

[root@host nagiosxi]#  /usr/bin/curl -L -f -s -S --netrc-optional -U ":" -x "username:password@proxy:port" "http://www.perl.org/CPAN/authors/01mailrc.txt.gz" > testfile

Ideas?

So I discovered that it was the wkhtml subcomponent install script and quickly bodged together a replacement perl script which got me past that point:

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Archive::Extract;
use Config;
use LWP::Simple;
use File::Copy;

# Determine correct architecture
my $arch = "";
if ($Config{'archname64'}) {
    $arch = 'amd64';
} else {
    $arch = 'i386';
}
# Assemble wkversion number
my $wkversion = "wkhtmltopdf-0.10.0_rc2-static-$arch.tar.bz2";
my $assets    = "http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagiosxi/components/";

# Create entire URL from wkeversion and assets glued together
my $url = $assets . $wkversion;

# Download file and retrieve the filename
`/usr/bin/curl -L -f -s -S --netrc-optional -U ":" -x "http://user:password@proxy:port" "$url" > $wkversion`;

# Create tarfile object with download file and set to extract as bz2
my $tarname = Archive::Extract->new( archive=> $wkversion );
#Extract all files to /usr/bin/
$tarname->extract;

# Rename and move file that was extracted
my $extractname = "wkhtmltopdf-$arch";
move( $extractname , '/usr/bin/wkhtmltopdf' );

Thanks for posting your results.

This was a known issue with the 3.2 installer on proxy networks. We have it fixed in svn for our next release.
