Trigger not working for Text Items

[maxpower]

Hi,
i send some text to the zabbix server with zabbix_sender. The text arrives, i see it in the "latest data".
Now i want a trigger that reacts when a text item arrives but it doesn't work.

{Template_Solaris_HVB:ELOG.last(0)}#0

The item key name is ELOG. If i send something to zabbix i get no event !
I tried count and regexp without luck. The strange thing is that str() claims it only works for char and log but not for strings ?
Function (str) available only for items with value types [Character,Log]

Any workaround available ?

it's a bug

you always forgot ITEM_VALUE_TYPE_TEXT in the evalfunc.c for str, regexp, count and so on. Also in the php frontend.

Thanks for reporting this.

Still a bug?

I encountered this problem today when trying to use the .str function on a item having type 'text'.

Is this still a bug in Zabbix? Bug report?

Trigger not working for Text Items

Hello Everybody, this is my first post in the forum , so I ll try be as clear as possible.

I have installed and configured Zabbix 1.6.2 on a Centos 5 .
I have installed and configured SNMPTT and the snmptrapd daemon
Traps successfully arrive at Zabbix.

Below you can see the command i use to send the traps with Snmptt.conf
EXEC /usr/local/sbin/zabbix_sender -v -z localhost -p 10051 -s $r -k snmptraps -o "$aA::$s:: $N - $Fz"

Also the arrived trap from the history in zabbix look like this:

x.x.x.x::OK:: Alarm_OFF - Video running for x.x.x.x
x.x.x.x::Critical:: Alarm_ON - Video stopped for x.x.x.x

were x.x.x.x is ip address.

What I need to do . I need to have a trigger that comes on when Alarm_ON and go off when Alarm_OFF . Also when I receive anything else I need zabbix to ignore it .

Finally I need to have this triggers to Auto-close themselves.

For example Alarm_ON and the status in Zabbix = problem
Alarm_OFF and the status in Zabbix = OK

I have tested items both with text or character configuration but is it seems that the command {x.x.x.x:snmptraps.str(Alarm_ON)}=1 for example doesn't work.

Just to mentions that I am using /usr/local/sbin/zabbix_sender and not the sh or perl script .

Can you please help me ?
