Yiir! A bug Ill push it to Erisan and ask him to take a look at it

[mbjoerling]

kyi, will you try on a server without Exchange installed, i think maybe the counters is pushing the limits. Want to see if it the language or something else. Thanks

[mbjoerling]

kye, btw. I can supply a test implementation of the update service if it is?

A Java webservice, running though Tomcat with AXIS.

k, i try it on an new installed mashine without exchange.

Got the new client installed and double checked the perf counter names using the handy new counter list. Same issue as before, received data is zero from some counters.

I was about to install the client on another machine, in case it's the machine, but I've just wrecked my Zabbix server with a dist-upgrade that went wrong

So I'll test again from a fresh install of both the server and the client over the weekend.


(The new setup program is great btw )

Thanks

What counters do you configure ?, then i can try at my workstation.

.NET Agent Build 14

Anyone tried installing Build 14 of the .NET Agent yet? I tried on 2 different test workstations (both WXP SP2), and after the install, I got an error stating that the Service does not exist (which I confirmed). Also, the configuration page was blank (no options). This was a fresh install of the .NET Agent on both, there was no previous version.

I tried Build 13 and it installed with no problems...

Thanks!

Problems installing ZabbixAgentNET_0.9_Build14 on XP SP2

I have downloaded the latest file ZabbixAgentNET_0.9_Build14.exe to take a look at this agent. I have tried several times to install and receive no errors during installation, but it apparently fails to create the service entry. The files are located in the program files folders and if I run the configuration agent from there, I do get the configuration screens (This does not show if I use the link created in the start programs menu), but after I apply settings and try to restart, it faile complaining that the service doesn't exist. I have uninstalled and re-installed twice, but no luck.
Any ideas?

I had the same issue when I was testing this out today. You need to use the installutil.exe from the .NET framework to install the service.

ie:

"..\installutil.exe C:\...\ZabbixAgent.exe"

Using SSH

I created a public and private key.

If I type "plink -i priv.key -P port username@host" I can connect and I get a bash prompt.

I would like to know what I need to enter into the Private Key dialogue in order to get a connection working. When I check the agent.log I see:

ERROR net.sourceforge.zabbixagent.connection - Could not connect to server. Check the secure tunnel and the zabbix server. Error: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

ERROR net.sourceforge.zabbixagent.tunneler - Restarting secure connection for Agent

I have tried entering a path and I also tried just the file name. The SSH2 RSA key I created will not fit in the 1 line box. I assumed it was a path to the key.

Can someone help me get this working on the .NET agent?

Also, what will my host setup be for the Active Agent? I created a host with no IP address. It just seemed like the right thing to do. If I need to specify an IP address would it be the external IP? Also, if this is true how would I specify multiple hosts from an external IP like that? Diffrent ports?

[Logicwrath]

Alright, I got the SSH tunnel up using my private key. A look through the source helped me with that one.

Those of you using a nonstandard port for SSH would need to add a -P xxx where xxx is the port number in your SSH Server configuration box.

Now, I need to spend my time trying to figure out how to configure the Zabbix server to accept Active Agent data. (If any configuration is needed) and how to properly configure the port forwarding piece as I feel I am not doing it right.

Currently, I have a host setup in Zabbix with no IP address specified. It is using the standard 10050 port.

I need to figure out how to get the port forwarding piece of plink.exe working as I keep getting messages like this when testing.

sshd[30440]: error: connect_to ::1 port 10050: Connection refused
