Hi all,

Today, I do not know why, xymonnet began to no longer work. (4.3.13)

This is the error message:

2014-02-03 11:41:55 Timeout waiting for data from child, killing it
2014-02-03 11:41:55 Timeout waiting for data from child, killing it
2014-02-03 11:41:55 Child process terminated with signal 15

All my network test are purple.

I have no problem to ping or telnet my monitored hosts

This is my task.cfg :
CMD xymonnet --report --ping --checkresponse --trace --test-untagged 
--timeout=10 --bb-proxy-syntax

Any suggestions?
thanks

Marco

The 'Timeout waiting ...' message comes from xymonnet running an external command: Either for an ntp- or rpc-test, or a traceroute to a host that failed the ping check. I see that you use the "--trace" option, so traceroute'ing could be the cause.

Try disabling any ntp- or rpc-tests (you probably don't have a lot of those), and remove the "--trace" option - that should make everything work fine. Then you can re-enable them and see where it breaks.

Solved removing the --trace option.
I had too many switches down and disabled !!

thanks Enrik
