Hmm. The only thing that jumps out at me is that the version jump crosses
the "extcombo" divide... A newer xymonnet sending to an older xymond might
be sending messages the older one doesn't understand. xymonproxy (4.3.x at
least) does not recombine into extcombo in any situation, so it wouldn't
be causing it at that point.
Can you send xymonproxy a -USR1 signal to turn on verbosity? That should
indicate what kind of / whether it's getting messages from xymonnet as
expected.

A little more info. The proxy appears to be working. It does proxy some

In the xymonserver.cfg, XYMONDPORT is set to 1985. The proxy is on 1984
and the server is on 1985.
Turned on debugging on xymonnet and it says that it is sending to 1984
locally.
This works in 4.3.10 on CentOS 5. And has for a couple of years. And we
see plenty of proxy traffic coming through.

Subject: proxy issues
Ok - been trying my BEST to track down this issue, but simple of it is we
are upgrading a proxy
Going from Centos 5.11 (or 7) and from xymon 4.3.10 to Centos 6.7 and
xymon 4.3.21
Should be (you would think) as simple as making sure config files are
same, or basically copy the /etx/xymon over, bring down old, bring up new
on old ip. What is just absolutely weird, that I have YET to track down as
to why or what, suddenly now conn, ntp, http, bbd are no longer updated.
Everything else seems to be working and updating from proxy to main. What
I need help with is why did THOSE just stop?
I've been going through the mailing list archives - I've setup a smaller
"test system(s)" at the house (all on vm), can get everything working
there, but NOT on this.Just any direction on what I could specifically
debug to find this problem would be a help.
Thanks
