GUI issues after 5.6.12 -> 5.7.1 upgrade

[sib]

What is the state on this? It has not been working for a long time

Code: Select all

# cat /etc/my.cnf
[mysqld]
innodb_file_per_table=1

datadir=/var/lib/mysql
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
# Disabling symbolic-links is recommended to prevent assorted security risks
symbolic-links=0
# Settings user and group are ignored when systemd is used.
# If you need to run mysqld under a different user or group,
# customize your systemd unit file for mariadb according to the
# instructions in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Systemd

[mysqld_safe]
log-error=/var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log
pid-file=/var/run/mariadb/mariadb.pid

#
# include all files from the config directory
#
!includedir /etc/my.cnf.d

Hi @sib,

The database configuration file looks ok. At this point, I would recommend downgrading the backend database utility to the previous version, see the instructions below. Let me know if you need any assistance.

Downgrade Instructons (Local Database)

Code: Select all

systemctl stop nagios
cd /tmp
rm -rf /tmp/nagiosxi
wget https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagiosxi/5/xi-5.6.14.tar.gz
tar zxf xi-5.6.14.tar.gz
cd /tmp/nagiosxi/subcomponents/ndoutils
./install
systemctl enable ndo2db

Then edit your /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg and make sure this line is uncommented:

Code: Select all

broker_module=/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndomod.o config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/ndomod.cfg

Make sure this line is commented:

Code: Select all

#broker_module=/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndo.so /usr/local/nagios/etc/ndo.cfg

Then start the nagios service:

Code: Select all

systemctl start nagios

Hi

what is the downgrade procedure for RPM installs?

Hi @Sib,

As long as you have the development packages on the server, it would be the same process used on the standard installs, as follow:

Downgrade Instructons (Local Database)

Code: Select all

systemctl stop nagios
cd /tmp
rm -rf /tmp/nagiosxi
wget https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagiosxi/5/xi-5.6.14.tar.gz
tar zxf xi-5.6.14.tar.gz
cd /tmp/nagiosxi/subcomponents/ndoutils
./install
systemctl enable ndo2db

Then edit your /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg and make sure this line is uncommented:

Code: Select all

broker_module=/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndomod.o config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/ndomod.cfg

Make sure this line is commented:

Code: Select all

#broker_module=/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndo.so /usr/local/nagios/etc/ndo.cfg

Then start the nagios service:

Code: Select all

systemctl start nagios

Hi

This "solved" the issue. I hope it will be fixed in 5.7.3?

Hi Sib,

This "solved" the issue. I hope it will be fixed in 5.7.3?

Glad to hear that helped resolve the issue for now. I should have more information on the next release late next week.
