    ZABBIX 1.1beta11: Known issues & patches

    1. Agrregate functions do not work as expected (confirmed)

    Fixed in CVS. Wait for 1.1beta12.

    2. A
    ctions having Trigger Value = <something> or Trigger Value >= <something> do not work (confirmed)

    Fix:


    actions.c, line 530 should be changed to:

    ...
    else if(condition->operator == CONDITION_OPERATOR_NOT_EQUAL)
    ...

    Fixed in CVS. Wait for 1.1beta12.

    3. Windows agent dies just after startup (not confirmed)

    Please give us more details. We were unable to reproduce the problem yet.

    4. A typo in MySQL schema.sql (confirmed)

    Line 384:

    CREATE TABLE media
    (

    alternatively you may use schem from ZABBIX 1.1beta9.

    Fixed in CVS. Wait for 1.1beta12.

    5. A problem syncing graphs with a template (confirmed)

    Fix file include/graphs.inc.php, line 463-465:


    $new_graphid = add_graph($db_graph["name"],$db_graph["width"],$db_graph["height"], $db_graph["yaxistype"],$db_graph["yaxismin"],$db_graph["yaxismax"],$db_graph["show_work_period"],
    $db_graph["show_triggers"],$graphid);

    Fixed in CVS. Wait for 1.1beta12.


    6. Upgraded to beta11 though frontend still reports beta10 (confirmed)


    Absolutely non-critical issue. Do not worry, the frontend is 1.1beta11

    Fix file include/locales/en_gb.inc.php:

    "S_ZABBIX_VER"=> "ZABBIX 1.1beta11",

    Fixed in CVS. Wait for 1.1beta12.

    7. U
    nefficient performance after upgrading to 1.1beta11

    Fix: http://www.zabbix.com/forum/showthre...0237#post10237

    Fixed in CVS. Wait for 1.1beta12.

    8. Incorrect processing of actions. Several emails for the same event instead of one (confirmed)

    Fixed in CVS. Wait for 1.1beta12.

    9. Bad design of message delays causes confusion (confirmed)

    Support of message delay has been dropped.

    Fixed in CVS. Wait for 1.1beta12.

    10. Cannot add any Info elements to screen (confirmed)

    Fixed in CVS. Wait for 1.1beta12.

    11. Random Linux agent crash (confirmed)

    It seems it happens when using proc.mem[<name>,,]

    We reproduced this problem on our test system. Not fixed yet.

    Hello,

    Windows agent dies just after startup (not confirmed)



    I have started the zabbix agent beta 10 in the DOS-Box with parameter "test".
    Here is the logfile:

    C:\>zabbixw32 test
    Using configuration file "C:\zabbix_agentd.conf"
    Configuration file OK
    [22-May-2006 20:25:38] *************** Log file opened ****************
    [22-May-2006 20:25:38] Collector thread initialized successfully
    [22-May-2006 20:25:38] [22-May-2006 20:25:38] Zabbix Win32 Agent started

    [22-May-2006 20:25:39] Information: 2632 : Listen thread is Started.

    The result is this error:

    AppName: zabbixw32.exe AppVer: 0.0.0.0 ModName: zabbixw32.exe
    ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00003aa0

    beta 9 agent functioned without problems .

      Yes, I saw it in a post. Unfortunately it gives virtually no useful information about reasons of the problem.

        3. Windows agent dies just after startup (not confirmed)

        Check your path for the "zabbix_agentd.conf" file.
        Default C:\zabbix_agentd.conf

          A typo in frontends/php/include/graphs.inc.php:

          Code:
          	function	copy_graph_to_host($graphid, $hostid)
          	{
          		$db_graph = get_graph_by_graphid($graphid);
          		$new_graphid = add_graph($db_graph["name"],$db_graph["width"],$db_graph["height"],
          			$db_graph["yaxistype"],$db_graph["yaxismin"],$db_graph["yaxismax"],$graph["show_work_period"],
          			$graph["show_triggers"],$graphid);
          must be:
          Code:
          	function	copy_graph_to_host($graphid, $hostid)
          	{
          		$db_graph = get_graph_by_graphid($graphid);
          		$new_graphid = add_graph($db_graph["name"],$db_graph["width"],$db_graph["height"],

          Thank a lot to your work!

                        753713,

                        can you try to shut down as much as possible other services that are not standard windows services (like anti virus, backup, ...) and see if the zabbix agent is able to start.

                        For sure the Zabbix agent is conflicting with somthing else and we need to nail down the cause as this can happen to other users too.

                        Please report back.

                        Greetings.

                        PS. Wierd forum name you have
                        EriSan
