DBforBis windows service

Hi, is anybordy succeeded to start dbforbix as windows service?
I tried with 2.2 beta , when starting the service I have following error
FindClass net/qdevzone/dbforbix/DBforBIX failed
So I tried to replace with com.smartmarmot.dbforbix.DBforBIX using dbforbixw.exe but still have same kind of issue.
FindClass com/smartmarmot/dbforbix/DBforBIX failed
Any idea?
Regards,
Marc

sorry but replaced where?

I just tried to replace in the Class filed (in startup) cause there was a problem with net.qdevzone.dbforbix.DBforBIX (value set by default).
But it didn't fix anything.
If I don't change anything and use default value, the service always fail to start with error I just described in my previous post.

Moreover, using 2.0 I'm able to run the script using command line and works perfectly but with 2-2, with the same command line (java -jar dbforbix.jar -d -a start -C C:\dbforbix\) , I always have this error:
Of course I added the ojdbc6.jar in lib.

I see the issue is with the windows version, I've updated the right version, but please be aware that I use the linux one... and the window is not deeply tested.

thank's , works fine now.
Moreover, if I can propose you an extra option regarding encryption.
Now zabbix supports encryption, either Dbforbix could integrate it or may be add an option to use native zabbix agent (in this case the zabbix trapper) instead of using the java zabbix trapper that you implemented.
However, thank's a lot for your great work.

Marc

DB2 example configuration

Hi there, im trying to configure stuff for db2, but with no luck.
Is possible to have some sample of conf that work with this db? Is really annoying that something that i can do in 5 minutes with nagios is quite difficult (for me at list...) with zabbix!
Tnx in advance

Vito

Hi friends!

Hi team,

i'm using dbforbix 0.6 with Zabbix 4.4 and it's not working, we can not see any info in zabbix gui items, same configuration works just fine with zabbix v3.4. I found online that some people are saying that dbforbix wont work with zabbix v4 and higher, there is some official documentation about it?

Thanks!

As far as I am concerned dbforbix was developed by Andrea Della Vacche - who no longer does it.
