Dashboard stuck at "Loading" since upgrade to 1.8.3

[crb]

I just upgraded to Zabbix 1.8.3 and found that the dashboard, graphs, screens, etc, were all missing to me.

The problem turned out to be that the scriptaculous library wasn't in the right place, and my .deb hadn't accounted for it. In case anyone else is bitten, the clue was enabling PHP error logging, and seeing this:

[26-Aug-2010 22:22:27] PHP Warning:  file_get_contents(js/scriptaculous/effects.js): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/share/zabbix/jsLoader.php on line 98
[26-Aug-2010 22:22:27] PHP Warning:  file_get_contents(js/scriptaculous/dragdrop.js): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/share/zabbix/jsLoader.php on line 98

Just a heads up!

My setup has the symlinks for the files correct in place, but I still get the error message:

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     42 2010-09-01 18:40 dragdrop.js -> ../../javascript/scriptaculous/dragdrop.js
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     41 2010-09-01 18:40 effects.js -> ../../javascript/scriptaculous/effects.js

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     47 2010-09-01 18:40 scriptaculous.js -> ../../javascript/scriptaculous/scriptaculous.js

Is it that file_get_contents can't poke with symlinks?

[tekknokrat]

OK, on 2nd look I saw that symlinks where wrong.

Solution:

cd /usr/share/zabbix/js
rm effects.js
rm dragdrop.js
ln -s ../../javascript/scriptaculous ./

Yep, exactly that. Thanks for your clarification. Glad to see the post helped at least one person!
