ncpa 3.0.0 not handling duplicate entries in configuration

[CBoekhuis]

Hello,

today we installed ncpa-3.0.0-latest.x86_64 on our nagiosxi server ( test environment Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.9 (Ootpa)).

We got error messages from systemd:

nagiosxi_test:root:/root> systemctl status ncpa
● ncpa.service - NCPA

After looking at the file we see the following :

# Linux / Mac OS X
.sh = /bin/sh $plugin_name $plugin_args
.py = python3 $plugin_name $plugin_args
.pl = perl $plugin_name $plugin_args
.php = php $plugin_name $plugin_args

# Windows
.ps1 = powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File $plugin_name $plugin_args
.vbs = cscript $plugin_name $plugin_args //NoLogo
.wsf = cscript $plugin_name $plugin_args //NoLogo
.bat = cmd /c $plugin_name $plugin_args
.sh = /bin/bash $plugin_name $plugin_args

I managed to start the ncpa service by moving the .sh line in the windows section to the Linux and deleting the line in de Linux section.

Question to you is : is this correct? And why is this not corrected by the installer.

Mean while we have stopped enrolment of the new release.

With kind regards,

Christian

Christian, I have a hunch that the answer is that it isn't correct.

Please file an issue in the NCPA GitHub repository here: https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/ncpa

It seems that this is an issue of having duplicate entries in the plugin extensions. If you'd like, I can create an issue to allow NCPA to handle duplicate file extensions. The configuration does not ship in that state however and it's not intended to have duplicates in the configuration. Please respond here with @bbahn if you would like me to handle this.
