Error importing graphs in 1.8.4

[niumar]

Hi!

When I export a template with itens, triggers and graphs and import it again with a new name (edited in xml), itens and triggers are imported but graphs return a error during the import:

# Missed item [:] for host [Template_Linux_Bd01xxx]

I guess this is a bug. I have tryed with a lot of templates. Always during the import I received back the same error.

Thanks!

Workaround

I can confirm the import problem. There seems to be something wrong with the ymin_type and ymax_type content in the xml export.
I guess, an item, which was used as Y axis MIN/MAX value (type "Item") was deleted (or renamed?) and thus the corresponding field in the graph is empty.

When exporting such a graph, I get

<ymin_type>2</ymin_type>
<ymax_type>2</ymax_type>
<ymin_item_key>:</ymin_item_key>
<ymax_item_key>:</ymax_item_key>

which does fail when importing the graph again.

Possible workaround: Change the xml to

<ymin_type>0</ymin_type>
<ymax_type>0</ymax_type>
<ymin_item_key></ymin_item_key>
<ymax_item_key></ymax_item_key>

Possible type values are (from include/defines.inc.php):

	define('GRAPH_YAXIS_TYPE_CALCULATED',	0);
	define('GRAPH_YAXIS_TYPE_FIXED',		1);
	define('GRAPH_YAXIS_TYPE_ITEM_VALUE',	2);

Besides this, Zabbix should check for the graph yaxis items, when renaming or deleting an item - maybe issue a warning or reset the yaxis type to calculated?
