COLOR=yellow not recognized 🔗 link

Hello.
Running Hobbit 4.0.4.

In my alerts, I have the following alert:

HOST=dclcore SERVICE=aaierr
        MAIL user-1062e5a01ee9@xymon.invalid COLOR=yellow

But, it doesn't recognize the COLOR=yellow.  In the info column, it's just
blank under the COLORS column and doesn't alert either.  If I change it to
COLOR=red, it shows red.  COLOR=yellow,red shows red only.

In the hobbitserver.cfg, I have:
ALERTCOLORS="red,purple"        # Colors to alert on.

The command:  
~/server/bin/bbcmd --env=/usr/local/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
hobbitd_alert --dump-config

shows this:

HOST=dclcore SERVICE=aaierr 
        MAIL user-1062e5a01ee9@xymon.invalid FORMAT=TEXT REPEAT=30 COLOR=yellow 

Has anyone had the same problem?

Thanks
David

Hi David,

ALERTCOLORS has precedence over what you put into hobbit-alerts.cfg. 
Setting this to "red,purple" means that the alert module will only
see red and purple events - NEVER yellow ones. So putting a COLOR=yellow
in the hobbit-alerts.cfg has no effect.

If you need the alert on yellow, you'll have to make ALERTCOLORS
include yellow.

The setting for a process with just the minimum specified does not 
appear to work?  The output below should have displayed yellow alarms.  

4.1.1 has several bugs in how it parses the configuration file.
Could you try using the latest snapshot version ?

One more thing: This line

      PROC TCOMSServer6 1 yellow

is invalid - you must list the maximum count, or "-1" if
there is no limit.

The setting for a process with just the minimum specified does not appear to work?  The output below should have displayed yellow alarms.  This does not work in reality either .  We have numerous other processes we have set to a minimum of 1 and an unlimited maximum that are firing red alarms, when we would like to see yellows. 
       PROC TCOMSServer5 1 5 yellow
       PROC TCOMSServer6 1 yellow
