Xymon not showing up hosts in the html web page
list William Gregoire
Hello, I have been working on a situation with my xymon server for over a week, I cant find the solution. For some reason I am unable to see the hosts I add in my hosts.cfg file on the main webpage of xymon. I have 2 location on my server where hosts files are. 1- /usr/lib/xymon/server/etc/hosts.cfg 2- /etc/xymon/hosts.cfg Whaterver i do in those 2 hosts files, nothing happen. I added a screenshot to this email so you can see what my home page looks like. If you have any suggestion regarding this situation, thanks in advance.

What does /etc/xymon/hosts.cfg look like? Share that config here. Did you install from a package or compile it? Josh Luthman Office: XXX-XXX-XXXX Direct: XXX-XXX-XXXX XXXX Wayne St Suite XXXX Troy, OH XXXXX On Mon, Nov 12, 2018 at 11:03 AM, Gregoire, William <

For the instalation i dont know the difference between package and compiling it. But i just downloade dit from sourceforge, extracted the zip file, and i ran the ‘’./configure’’ command, after that i did ‘’sudo make’’ , then ‘sudo make install’’. Here is my host.cfg from /etc/xymon/hosts.cfg # # Master configuration file for Xymon # # This file defines several things: # # 1) By adding hosts to this file, you define hosts that are monitored by Xymon # 2) By adding "page", "subpage", "group" definitions, you define the layout # of the Xymon webpages, and how hosts are divided among the various webpages # that Xymon generates. # 3) Several other definitions can be done for each host, see the hosts.cfg(5) # man-page. # # You need to define at least the Xymon server itself here. #0.0.0.0 .default. # NOPROPRED:+apt,+libs #group Servers 127.0.0.1 chas-mon01 # bbd http://chas-mon01/ #group Dialup #0.0.0.0 notebook.bla.net # noconn dialup #chapais include ./cha/hosts.cfg In case you want to see the other file, here it is, for the /usr/lib/xymon/server/etc/hosts.cfg # # Master configuration file for Xymon # # This file defines several things: # # 1) By adding hosts to this file, you define hosts that are monitored by Xymon # 2) By adding "page", "subpage", "group" definitions, you define the layout # of the Xymon webpages, and how hosts are divided among the various webpages # that Xymon generates. # 3) Several other definitions can be done for each host, see the hosts.cfg(5) # man-page. # # You need to define at least the Xymon server itself here. 127.0.0.1 chas-mon01 # bbd http://chas-mon01/ include /etc/xymon/hosts.cfg I did a reboot of the server, and now for some reason, the xymon is showing my server twice on the monitoring ? You can see the attached file.

Ok, Here is my updated hosts.cfg
▸
# # Master configuration file for Xymon # # This file defines several things: # # 1) By adding hosts to this file, you define hosts that are monitored by Xymon # 2) By adding "page", "subpage", "group" definitions, you define the layout # of the Xymon webpages, and how hosts are divided among the various webpages # that Xymon generates. # 3) Several other definitions can be done for each host, see the hosts.cfg(5) # man-page. # # You need to define at least the Xymon server itself here. #0.0.0.0 .default. # NOPROPRED:+apt,+libs #group Servers 127.0.0.1 chas-mon01 # bbd http://chas-mon01/ #group Dialup 0.0.0.0 notebook.bla.net # noconn dialup #chapais include ./cha/hosts.cfg
Now I see the notebook.bla.net in my xymon page, as you can see in the attached file.

The only thing you have in here is chas-mon01. Did you put the other hosts in ./cha/hosts.cfg?

I think the "make" command has to be run as the xymon user. You only use root to install it. -- Stephen

You know what, i fixed the problem, thank you all for your help. The mistake was in my path ‘’./cha/hosts.cfg’’ for some reason xymon didn’t like it, therefore I changed it for ‘’/etc/xymon/cha/hosts.cfg’’ and then the include worked.
