Nagios Support Forum

I was in the process of deleting objects which i dont need from my map when I encountered error "Attribute definition out of object. In map opsmain at line #9473",when I deleted this line,the error keeps on moving to a different line up the configuration file.I have read a similar post on this but the solution provided does not appply to my case.

Please advise.

Is this in regards to NagVis? Can you show us the definition of the object at roughly line #9473? Are these objects actually present on the map? Did you move their location to another map and still keep a copy on this one?

Yes its Nagvis,This is the definition of that object:

define line {^M
x=636,706^M
y=305,305^M
line_type=12^M
line_width=1^M
line_color=#000000^M
}^M
^M

I deleted this object from the map itself,actually i deleted a number of objects from the map.when it came up with error,i deleted these object from the cfg file too.But the error just keeps on moving to a different line.

Please advise.

Your file has the wrong line endings - it currently is using dos/windows line endings "^M". This can be caused by using filzilla/winscp in windows to copy/edit files from the nagios server and then writing the file/changes back. Use dos2unix to convert the file back:

Thank you very much.This fixed the problem.
