Hi folks,

i am still observing incorrect indication of the repeat column value on the info page. i wonder that nobody else observes something like this..
regardless what i am configuring, there is always a value of 30 min displayed. however, i am sure this is only a display problem, since anything works as configured after all, e.g. REPEAT=5m, 60m, 24h.
probably a bug? or something that is specific to my system only?

Greetings

btw. have a nice weekend...

Since noone else has reported it, I'm sure it's something in your setup.

Did you put the REPEAT on the rule line, or the recipient line ? Since
REPEAT is per-recipient, it should go on the recipient line. Like this:

   HOST=*
       MAIL user-ef86c43926b6@xymon.invalid REPEAT=10m


This one will not do what you want:

   HOST=* REPEAT=10m
       MAIL user-ef86c43926b6@xymon.invalid

How hard would it to include a bb-host (and hobbit-alert) config file 
validator within hobbit (knowing you its probably already there :) )

If you have TAB's in your hobbit-alerts.cfg file, these have been found to confuse hobbitd_alert. There's a one-line patch to hobbit 4.0.3
available - could you try this and let me know if it solves your
problem?

It's not quite there, but the 4.0.3 version will complain a bit more
in the page.log file if it finds something odd in the hobbit-alerts.cfg file.
