Xymon 4.3.7 released 🔗 link

Hi,

after a week of intensive bug-hunting - thanks to everyone who chimed in 
with new reports! - I have released Xymon 4.3.7. This simply has fixes 
for all the bugs found in the past week and reported on the mailing list:

* Fix acknowledge CGI (broken in 4.3.6)
* Fix broken uptime calculation for systems reporting "1 day"
* Workaround Solaris breakage in the LFS-support detection
* Fix/add links to the HTML man-page index.
* Fix "Stop after" value not being shown on the "info" page.
* Fix broken alert texts when using FORMAT=SMS
* Fix wrong description of xymondboard CRITERIA in xymon(1)
* Fix missing columnname in analysis.cfg(5) DS example
* Fix missing space in output from disk IGNORE rules in
   xymond_client --dump-config
* Fix overwrite of xymon-apache.conf when upgrading
* Fix installation so it does not remove include/directory
   lines from configuration files.
* Add client/local/ directory for custom client script

It is available from the Sourceforge mirrors now. I have also uploaded a 
VMware image with a pre-installed Debian 6 plus Xymon 4.3.7.


Regards,
Henrik

Workaround Solaris breakage in the LFS-support detection

This is pretty minor.  LFS detection on SPARC is not broken to my knowledge. x86 is.
In the test in lfs.sh it might be worth extending the test pattern.

bash-2.05$ uname -a
SunOS moe 5.9 Generic sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraAX-i2
bash-2.05$ uname -si
SunOS SUNW,UltraAX-i2

[tm at thumper2:~]$ uname -a
SunOS thumper2 5.10 Generic_137138-09 i86pc i386 i86pc
[tm at thumper2:~]$ uname -si
SunOS i86pc

if test "`uname -si`" = "SunOS i86pc"; then
                echo "Large File Support assumed OK on Solaris"
                exit 0
        fi

Thanks !

Does this version enable the ack log when done by Critical View ?

Hi Henrik,

Just to make sure we are on the same page.  Yes you do not remove the includes for xymonserver.cfg however, I have this which I did at your suggestion:

include xymonserver-graphs.cfg

which contains definitions for TEST2RRD, GRAPHS, NCV_* and SPLITNCV_* variables. Unfortunately, when I did the upgrade I believe the original definitions for TEST2RRD and GRAPHS in xymonserver.cfg are the variables that are used NOT the redefined variables in my xymonserver-graphs.cfg.  So again I lost a bunch of hours of graphs, I suppose I should check that after each upgrade.  Should I just make the manual edit of removing TEST2RRD and GRAPHS from xymonserver.cfg for each upgrade or do you think it may be changed in the next version?

Again, thank you for all your hard work and thanks to all the others that are helping to contribute to a fine product.  It certainly makes our support jobs easier.

~David
