Hi,
Conn, info and trends are green as always.
cpu, disk, memory, msgs, ports and procs are purple.
Regards,
Traian.

So - your network tests ( server to client ) are green and current?  Server to client comms OK.
 
Your client tests are purple, no ghosts, no logfetch.* files?  Client to server comms NOTOK.

                  Hi,

Do you have anything         under Ghost reports on the xymon server?
I don't have anything under ghost         report.

Are the client         and server on the same or different hosts?
They are running on different hosts.         
Is the         client pointing at the correct address and port for the xymon         server
Yes it is pointing the correct         address and port.

How do you know files are         missing from ~/client/tmp directory .. what are you expecting to see         there? When         the client functioned(the test were green in xymon server) correctly i         saw two more files there logfetch.clientname.cfg and         logfetch.clientname.status.

Have         you checked the clientlaunch.log and xymonclient.log files for errors         in  ~/client/logs?
I see no         errors.

Regards,
Traian.

                                                                    Hi,
That one i have solved it,                   but....
Now i have reinstallled the client and i started it                   using ./runclient.sh --hostname=host start command from xymon                   user.
On the xymon server web page all the tests(disk,cpu                   etc) appear in violet colour and i see there the last report i                   had from when it functioned ok.
On the client i have issued                   some commands and you have the output                   here:

As i see there are some files missing from tmp                   directory. I don't understand why.
Can you please give me a                   hint?

Traian.
