Version Reporting to CMS #3

Closed k0qed closed 3 years ago

k0qed commented 5 years ago

RMS Gateway (v2.5.0) is reporting program version information to the CMS at 30 minute intervals based on logs at the CMS. Version information should be reported approximately every 24 hours. A good approach would be to report this at program startup and then every 24 hours.

The typical config scripts call for putting a crontab entry in that runs every half an hour, calling rmsgw_aci. All that is supposed to do is run the script. The actual updates to CMS are supposed to be based on the variables in include/rms.h:

#define DFLT_VERSIONUPD 86400   /* version updates daily */
#define DFLT_CHANNELUPD 7140    /* channel updates every two hours less one minute */

Perhaps rmsgw_aci is broken?

This is an installation problem. Check permissions on /usr/local/etc/rmsgw/stat if the user & group are root:root then the version aging file .version. will never get created and updateversion.py will be run according to the interval set by the crontab entry. The user:group for directory /usr/local/etc/rmsgw/stat needs to be rmsgw:rmsgw
