Search the mailinglist archive, there have been many mails about extinfo
and images:
My solutioon how to get images working. There is (or somevbody said) a
bug in the Debian package, so that you may need to build it from source!
---------------------------------------------------------------
I'm using a selfcompiled Debian too and it works here:
cgi.cfg:
#@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ eXtended Data File @@@@@@@@@@@@
#Only first file is parsed, so we put everything in one file!
xedtemplate_config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/extinfo.cfg
#xedtemplate_config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/serviceextinfo.cfg
#xedtemplate_config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/hostextinfo.cfg
#@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
in extinfo.cfg:
define serviceextinfo{
host_name newshell,omega,internet
service_description SSH
icon_image SSH.png
}
#extended Host Info
#
define hostextinfo{
host_name NagiosPC,webhost1,webhost2
icon_image debian.png
icon_image_alt Debian Server
statusmap_image debian.gd2
}
ls -al /usr/local/nagios/share/images/ | grep logos
drwxrwxr-x 2 nagios nagios 4096 2004-10-28 13:32 logos
ls -al /usr/local/nagios/share/images/logos
[cut]
-rw-r--r-- 1 nagios nagios 2389 2001-09-24 06:36 debian.gd2
-rw-r--r-- 1 nagios nagios 1437 2001-09-24 06:36 debian.gif
-rw-r--r-- 1 nagios nagios 1580 2001-09-24 06:36 debian.jpg
-rw-r--r-- 1 nagios nagios 1575 2001-09-24 06:36 debian.png
[cut]
-rw-r--r-- 1 nagios nagios 1365 2004-10-19 14:56 SSH.gif
-rw-r--r-- 1 nagios nagios 945 2004-10-19 14:56 SSH.jpg
-rw-r--r-- 1 nagios nagios 1751 2004-10-19 14:56 SSH.png
That works for me!
Remember: ONLY the first xedtemplate_config_file entry is taken!
e.g.:
xedtemplate_config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/serviceextinfo.cfg
xedtemplate_config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/hostextinfo.cfg
hostsextinfo.cfg is ignored
xedtemplate_config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/hostextinfo.cfg
xedtemplate_config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/serviceextinfo.cfg
serviceextinfo.cfg is ignored!
A Background image will only be shown if you select User supplied
coordinates, Hostgroup_name and * are not working in extinfo!
Cheers
Jan
