Hello

We have nagios configured to send out reports (in PDF format) at the end of every month. However, end user didn't receive last month reports. Though he has received previous months. I can generate reports in nagios GUI but they are within the nagios GUI.

I followed this site and this code to generate report.
http://www.claudiokuenzler.com/blog/117 ... d3BPZeiBJM

wkhtmltopdf --username user1 --password password!T "http://<ip address>/nagios3/cgi-bin/avail.cgi?show_log_entries=&host=HOST&service=SERVICE&timeperiod=thismonth" /tmp/report.pdf

Notice that we have '!T' in the password. If i run the command as above, i get this error.
-bash: !T: event not found

So i put the password in the 'password!T', it generates the report but within the report i don't see the actual data but message as shown attached.
wkhtmltopdf --username user1 --password password!T "http://<ip address>/nagios3/cgi-bin/avail.cgi?show_log_entries=&host=HOST&service=SERVICE&timeperiod=thismonth" /tmp/report.pdf

I would like to generate reports for ALL HOSTS and ALL HOSTGROUPS.
Please assist.
Thank you.
MK

Update-
I did a password change to exclue !T but i get the same output file as previoiusly.

Is this the only user that you do it for? Have you tried with different users?

Yes, created another user 'mkhan'.
Added this user to the cgi.cfg
restarted apache service, nagios but still see the same output as previously.
Verified that i can access nagios GUI through the new user.

[root@NSV10330 ~]# wkhtmltopdf --username mkhan --password cisco "http://<ip>/nagios/cgi-bin/avail.cgi?show_log_entries=&host=HOST&service=SERVICE&timeperiod=thismonth" /tmp/report.pdf

Question: How can i change this command line to generate report for ALL HOST and HOSTGROUPS. Wondering, may be we can try it?
Thanks.

You mean an individual report for each host and service right?

You'll have to blow it up on the command line and run the command for each individual object.

Code: Select all

[jdalrymple@localhost ~]$ grep host_name /usr/local/nagios/var/objects.cache | sort | uniq | awk '{print $2}'

You'll have to do some of your own munging to get things in order, but create a list then loop through it.

Hi

Thanks for the input.
Not the report through command line.

In my previous comment, i mean can we change some parameter (like ones i have bold) in the following command to generate report for HOSTS and HOSTGROUPS if possible. I really don't know what should i change in the this command to accomplish this.

wkhtmltopdf --username mkhan --password cisco "http://<ip>/nagios/cgi-bin/avail.cgi?show_log_entries=&host=HOST&service=SERVICE&timeperiod=thismonth" /tmp/report.pdf

Regards
MK

Try this for hostgroups. Replace NameofHostgroup with a real name of a hostgroup.

Code: Select all

wkhtmltopdf --username mkhan --password cisco "http://<ip>/nagios/cgi-bin/avail.cgi?show_log_entries=&host=HOST&hostgroup=NameofHostgroup&timeperiod=thismonth" /tmp/report.pdf
