/taranis/var/cron.often ad /taranis/var/cron.cycle generates error

[ScorpionKing34]

/taranis/var/cron.often: argument "" isn't numeric in numeric gt (>) at /taranis/taranis-3.6.2-templates/dashboard_write.tt line 59 On this line = [% END %]

/taranis/var/cron.cycle: ERROR: no cluster configured We don't uses clusters.

How can I resolve this issue?

Two separate issues. AFAIK, the 'dashboard_write.tt' one is just a warning, which disappears when the cron.cycle and cron.daily have run at least once. The "dashboard" page (front page) generation lacks some details at start.

The second error is probably correct. ~taranis/var/cron.cycle starts various cycle activities, one after the other. You can simply edit that script to disable "$TARANIS cluster news-items" on line 38 (Do not forget to document that in your own installation notes)

Neither issue should block your service

reply to 'To separate issues. AFAIK, the 'dashboard_write.tt' one is just a warning, which disappears when the cron.cycle and cron.daily have run at least once. The "dashboard" page (front page) generation lacks some details at start.': cron.cycle and cron.daily was running but still we get this error.

I think it is only a warning, so shouldn't harm you. But we may (finally) be able the fix it.

The line number is the end-of-file, because the whole template get compiled into one Perl function call... the problem can be anywhere. Can you try this fix:

--- templates/dashboard_write.tt.new    2020-02-17 09:25:13.066009300 +0100

            <hr class="light">
            [% END %]
        [% END %]

            <hr class="light">
            [% END %]
        [% END %]

It is the only place which I can see a 'guard' is missing on '>'. Apply to ~taranis/taranis-3.6.2/templates/dashboard_write.tt

[ScorpionKing34]

What do you mean 'guard' is missing on '>' ? where?

[markov2]

That line is my attempt to explain the patch.

The internals (somewhere in script/mod_*/*.pl) are written in such a way that collectorNotifications.data.size can be undef: that data array can be missing. The collectorNotifications && collectorNotifications.data part of each [% IF %] avoid the size comparison with > 0: those parts "guard" the comparison.

On the indicated line (see patch), one guard was missing... that may cause your warning.

[ScorpionKing34]

I am trying to understand your finding, but I don't see the solution. which patch?

[markov2]

My comment, which you quoted before contains a patch (a diff). Can't you see it on GitHub? I'll send you a screen dump of what i see by mail.

[ScorpionKing34]

This issue can be closed. I have two new issues.
