Hi All

I am testing new xymon-4.3.13 on CentOS 6.5 platform,
so far I have only encountered  one tiny bug.

1.  tasks.cfg

WHAT:  can't open tasks.d directory,
HOW:
 1. comment out last line in tasks.cfg
 2. or change the makefile to create etc/tasks.d directory

 [xymon]$ tail -3  /data/xymon/server/etc/tasks.cfg
# Include add-on modules.
directory /data/xymon/server/etc/tasks.d

[xymon ]$ grep task xymonlaunch.log

[xymon]$


Thanks

2. "include" still supported in 4.3.13 alerts.cfg ?

I couldn't get "include" to include other files that contain alert
configuration for different host.


2014-01-10 17:20:09 WARNING: Cannot open include file
'hobbit-alerts.cfg.devtet', line was:include hobbit-alerts.cfg.il93.devtet
2014-01-10 17:20:09 Ignored unknown/unexpected token 'include' at line 119
2014-01-10 17:20:09 Ignored unknown/unexpected token
'hobbit-alerts.cfg.devtet' at line 119

I purposely changed hobbitit-alerts.cfg.devtet name to wrong file name to
trigger above error message.

the content of hobbit-alerts.cfg.devtet is simply the xymon server itself
with email address.
if the content of hobbit-alerts.cfg.devtet got imported at the end of
alerts.cfg then I can see alert recipient got display in "info" column.

for other people testing 4.3.13, can you verify  "include"  in alerts.cfg
works for you or not ?

PS: include works in hosts.cfg.


Thanks
