[1.3.1] Wrong Text in notifications

[Anton]

Hi,

I'm using Zabbix since 1.1Beta8, working great. The latest stable 1.1.4 works also great, but i missed some features in the frontend (user permissions), so I upgraded to latest beta 1.3.1.

The frontend works - but also with some problems:

i tried to restrict groups, not to access some systems by creating a new group, assigning the "deny"-permissions and the stuff the user into this group.

but after that, even my "super admin" cannot access these systems any more - neither in the "monitoring"-section, nor in the "configuration"-tabs.

After revoking the deny-rights from the group, it works again as normal.

the super admin is NOT part of this group!



the next thing:

I monitor webhosting-servers with zabbix, so there is the element: "IMAP-Server is running on {HOSTNAME}". this is being displayed as it should on the monitoring-overview.

then I defined a trigger with "IMAP-Server is down on {HOSTNAME}". The value is also reported as "0", as it should and as i'm used from 1.1.4.

In the notification-mails, i used this as subject:

{TRIGGER.NAME}: {TRIGGER.VALUE}

well - in 1.1.4 this was displayed:

IMAP-Server is down on Venus: ON

now, with 1.3.1 I get:

IMAP-Server is down on Venus: OFF

after searching the sources, I found the difference between 1.1.4 and 1.3.1:

in file src/zabbix_server/expressions.c, the stable checks against "trigger->triggervalue", but the beta against "event->triggervalue" ... the event is "OFF", so this works ... but the trigger is now "ON", so that's not the text, i want to see ... either use "IMAP-Server is running: OFF" or "IMAP-Server is down: ON" ...

diff-output between expressions.c in 1.1.4 and 1.3.1:

721,722c731,732
<                       if(trigger->value == TRIGGER_VALUE_TRUE)
<                               snprintf(replace_to, sizeof(replace_to), "OFF");
---
>                       if(event->value == TRIGGER_VALUE_TRUE)
>                               zbx_snprintf(replace_to, sizeof(replace_to), "OFF");

Should i now change the trigger-texts? but then they don't match to the values in the frontend any more ... "IMAP-Server is running: 0", even when all works normal ...


in addition, i wanted to get the reported value from the trigger - e.g. the icmppingsec-value ...

{TRIGGER.NAME}: {{HOSTNAME}:{TRIGGER.KEY}}

This should get me something like that:

Pingtime to Venus is critical: 587ms

in the stable, this works great ... but beta reports:

Pingtime to Venus is critical: {Venus:icmppingsec}

if I should provide more details, let me know ...

and sorry for mistakes in the english language, i'm from Germany

It took some time to respond to your post I think all issues you reported were fixed in latest releases of 1.3.x.
