Background GIFs Improperly Displayed on Host-Service Pages
list Jonathan B. Horen
I configured, compiled, and installed xymon-4.3.0 according to the directions in docs/upgrade-to-430.txt (I've been running xymon-4.3.0beta2 for the past 15 months... with no problems). Everything works fine... except that the backgrounds displayed on the pages generated for host-service tests appear to be displayed improperly. Rather than having a single vertical stripe of color on the left-hand side of the page, which changes to black over an approximately inch-wide gradient, the vertical stripe-and-gradient are displayed over and over, across the width of the page... like waves. It's horribly disconcerting, and I cannot believe that this is by-design. Any ideas on what's-what? -- JONATHAN B.

This happened to me today updating a 4.2.3 server but the update script also didn't correct the xymonserver.cfg because if my proxying setup changes so I moved the directory out of the way instead and redid the install then did a diff on the configuration files. Before that my cgi directories hadn't worked either.

Looking at the page source from the main page and a host-service-test page, I see that the main page calls for the use of a style sheet: <!-- Styles for the Xymon body --> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/xymon/gifs/xymonbody.css"> while the host-service-test pages do not (setting the background statically): <BODY BGCOLOR="green" BACKGROUND="/xymon/gifs/bkg-green.gif" TEXT="#D8D8BF" LINK="#00FFAA" VLINK="#FFFF44">

FIXED! I edited $XYMONHOME/web/hostsvc_header as follows: <!-- Styles for the Xymon body --> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/xymon/gifs/xymonbody.css"> <!-- The favicon image --> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="&BBSKIN/favicon-&BBBACKGROUND.ico"> </HEAD> <BODY class="&BBBACKGROUND"> <BODY BGCOLOR="&BBBACKGROUND" BACKGROUND="&BBSKIN/bkg-&BBBACKGROUND.gif" TEXT="#D8D8BF" LINK="#00FFAA" VLINK="#FFFF44"> (added what's in blue, and deleted what's in red)
