    Latest Proxy Version

    I've been using Zabbix Proxies to monitor devices at remote locations. The proxies talk back to my cloud Zabbix server and it all has been working great for years. I just stood up a new Proxy at a new client's site and cannot get the devices to come online. Checking the Proxy Log I see the following message;

    failed to update local proxy configuration copy: invalid field name "items.jmx_endpoint"

    Apparently this is the result of a version mismatch between the server, proxy, and devices. The devices are all running the latest version of the agent I think, 3.4.6. The server runs 3.4.11. However, a check of the Proxy Version shows; 3.0.7. I just built this two days ago using what I thought was the current package; zabbix-release_3.4-1+stretch_all.deb.

    Why would this package contain this old version of the proxy and how do I get the appropriate Proxy version?

    Proxy version should match Server version. Operation system?

      Yes, I agree it should. However I just built this two days ago using what I thought was the current package; zabbix-release_3.4-1+stretch_all.deb. It says zabbix release 3.4-1.

        On Debian/Ubuntu if you have apt pinning (APT:efault-Release "stable" for stable release only, your version will be 3.0.7 even if zabbix-release-3.4 installed. So, check apt settings.

          Thank you for your response, I'm actually a Windows Server guy and I know just enough LINUX to be dangerous.

          Would the following be likely to give me the desired result?

          apt-get -t unstable install zabbix-release_3.4-1+stretch_all.deb

          I ran apt-config dump and saw no reference to pinning.

            OK, this seems to have resolved itself. Rebuilt it all from scratch and now all versions are correct.

              Hi,
              Hm, usually it's just enough to remove
              Code:
              APT::Default-Release "stable";
              from /etc/apt/apt.conf
