Incorrect key format for Simple check (version 1.4.1)

[claytronic]

Hello fellow Zabbix users and developers,

I'm trying to setup a few simple checks for monitoring a HTTP service running on port 8000 using the 1.4.1 UI. According to the latest Zabbix manual the syntax format is http,<ip>,<port>. When I attempt to save this new simple check, the UI reports Incorrect key format 'key_name[param1,param2,...]'.

When I try the UI's recommended syntax http[192.168.0.196,8000] I get this error Port number must be numeric in [http[192.168.0.196,8000]].


Here's my input values:

Description: HTTP Check Port 8000
Type: Simple check
Key: http,192.168.0.196,8000
Type of information: Numeric

Am I dealing with a 1.4.1 UI bug or just missing something obvious?

Thanks in advance,
Claytronic

This is a bug. Use UI from zabbix 1.4.0

Hello! the same problem......

[claytronic]

Any chance there is a "simple" php fix for the 1.4.1 frontend? Simple checks are a very important feature.

Please use frontend files from pre 1.4.2. This problem is fixed there.

Download it from www.zabbix.com/developers.php

Fix looks good. Looking forward to official 1.4.2 release.

Thanks for the follow up, Alexei.
