After I upgraded to 1.1.2, I restarted one of our servers and the email alert I received did not populate the {HOSTNAME} variable in the email body. I also am using the variable {STATUS} and it worked properly, but I didn't get a value for the hostname, I know some work was done with the variables.. did hostname get changed?

I will be rolling back to 1.1.1 until this is figured out.. it creates a bit more work for us (well for me.. my boss starts asking what is going on when the emails don't say what is going on..) when we don't know which server is having the problem. -
Does anybody else have this behavior with the new release?Comment

Your not the only one dan... I have the same prob.
Its funny how even though it can be a minor thing, the "boss approval factor" always plays an important role.
No offence to Alexei but these little things add up to an overall impression of the software. If there are no proper upgrade release notes, warnings, etc; the boss isnt going to approve a zabbix maintenance contract (which I personally would lobby for if zabbix had a better reputation in our company).Comment

We just retested this functionality. Everything works perfectly on our test system.
May I ask you to provide us with:
- original message body
- message body from the email
- is there anything in ZABBIX server log file?Comment

С {HOSTNAME} используемом прямо в action все в порядке.

I do confirm that ZABBIX does not substitute {HOSTNAME} if it was part of {TRIGGER.NAME} and used in either message's subject or body. Standalone {HOSTNAME} works fine.
Sorry for this.
A fix will be available shortly.Comment

How do I recompile the zabbix server with the expression.c
New at this thanks. I have copied the new file into the specified directory, what is the next step?Comment
-
Recompile
First off, thanks for the quick fix Alexei.
mkaser, you can recomplile by:
1. put updated file into correct location in source
2. stop any running instances of zabbix_server, zabbix_agentd, etc.
3. from the root directory of the source run configure. I run:
#./configure --enable-server --enable-agent --with-mysql --with-net-snmp
however, you might need different switches if you use a different database, or dont need snmp, etc.
4. assuming that you don't get any errors, then run
#make install
5. Start zabbix_server, etc again
Hope that helps.Comment
