Zabbix v4.2.1 Not working #56

Closed boyemillar closed 5 years ago

boyemillar commented 5 years ago

v4.2.0 worked fine however since updating to v4.2.1 i dont get any data returned from VMBIX

dav3860 commented 5 years ago

This issue is not related to the version of Zabbix. It's just that VMBix cannot connect to the VMWare API.

Hi.... Thanks for the fast response. :)

This was working fine but as soon as i updated all 4 of my VMBIX proxies are not pulling data back from our separate VCenters. I have the same credentials on all 4 VCenters and the domain account we use looks fine. Do you have any ideas of other things i can try.

whosgonna commented 5 years ago

For isolation purposes, do you have any other software that utilizes the vcenter sdk?

Is this line a part of the response when you run a zabbix_get request, or is it the command you are running:

vmbix -P 12050 -u "mydomain\myaccount" -p "mypassword" -s "https://myip:443/sdk"

It probably won't make a difference, but you could also try formatting the username as user@domain.com

Sorry @dav3860 finger trouble from me wrong IP used for the manual check above during the panic... However none of my Proxies are pulling data since the upgrade about 1 hour ago. Zabbix_get command is able to pull individual data...

zabbix_get -s 127.0.0.1 -p 12050 -k about[*]

returns the following = VMware vCenter Server 6.0.0 build-3634793

Is there anything in the zabbix proxy log regarding the vmbix pluggable module?

I don't know if there's a pre compiled module for 4.2, but you could manually compile it

boyemillar commented 5 years ago

Hi @whosgonna The line you have referred to is the command i ran but in the "myip" part i had put the ip of the proxy instead of the VCenter my bad... I'm just wondering why i cant get the info back via vmbixd the zabbix_get command is working as a test.

I tested the previously released module a few weeks ago on v4.2 and it was working fine. Maybe they have changed something which means a recompile will now be required.

Yep ther is an issue with the loadable module zabbix proxy log is showing this...

Are you able to manually recompile the module? Its fairly straightforward following the instructions in the module documentation.

I'll need to do this on a separate box... I'll give it a try tonight and let you know if it works.

boyemillar commented 5 years ago

Hi @whosgonna & @dav3860...

A recompile of the vmbix.so file usng the v4.2.1 source files has done the trick all working fine now.

Thanks for your help and apologies for the initial mixup with my IP mistake.
