Permalink broken in 5.7.2

Post by dh0125e »

On a Nagios 5.7.2 when I generate a permalink for the host status detail page for any host and then have another person (or myself) use that link it just goes to Tactile Overview default dashboard.

Is there a known fix for this issue?

We identified the issue is for HOW you get to the Host page. If you go in via Views -> Host Detail -> Host, you'll get the link that doesn't work. If you search for a host via the search at the top menu and then get a permalink it works.

The differences is the first adds a "views" as part of the URL that's not in the second.

Hi,

The permalink is relative to where you are in the application. When I tested this it just returned back to the Views page which makes sense since those pages are rotating.

Best Regards,
Benjamin

When I'm on the host details page and the navigation menu looks exactly the same and generate the permalink I get two different results, it depends upon HOW you get to the host details for if it works or not.

Hi @dh0125e,

I understand. For the time the workaround would be to grab these permalinks via the home screen, I can submit a request to the development team for an enhancement. Currently, the permalink is going to use the base URL from where it was accessed.
