Hello,

I use xymon as monitoring platform for servers. After upgrade clients to
version 4.3.20 they have stopped to send data via cgi script. Last working
version was 4.3.17.
I think the problem is in parsing XYMONSERVERS variable from configuration
file.

this works properly in all versions:
XYMONSERVERS="http://xymon_server/xymon/xymoncgimsg.cgi";

this does not (4.2.18 and later):
XYMONSERVERS="http://xymon_server:custom_port/xymon/xymoncgimsg.cgi";

The custom port is needed, because I use external SSL layer under http
(stunnel). Unfortunately cannot use standard TCP/443.

Could somebody fix it?

Will be possible use https directly in the next releases?

Many thanks
Vladimir

Hi,

Can you send in a debug log from a run from one of the new clients (and,
if possible one still running 4.3.17) showing what's happening?

e.g.: xymon --debug http://xymon_server:custom_port/xymon/xymoncgimsg.cgi
ping


Regarding direct 'https' submission, IIRC this is part of the SSL support
generally that's in trunk.
