cannot add new object via objectbrowser -> add -> host -> advanced

[palli]

clicking save results in an error "unable to get object ID XXXXX"

These views don't support posting into without specifying a valid ID.

(r'/geek_edit/id=(?P<object_id>.+)$', 'objectbrowser.views.geek_edit'),
(r'/advanced_edit/id=(?P<object_id>.+)$', 'objectbrowser.views.advanced_edit'),

There is a problem where this is particularly serious. Add for Contactgroups/hostgroups/servicegroups all use the advanced_edit form and therefore it is not possible to add new items of these types.

I'm seeing the same error here while trying to create a new host using the object browser. The error I get is:

Unable to get object
'2008215832818304213'

The files in /etc/nagios/adagios/hosts/ are actually being created and (at least at first glance) they look like they have all the information I wanted:

define host {
     check_period                   24x7                          
     active_checks_enabled          1                             
     check_command                  check_ec2_load 20 90 i-6ac5e600
     alias                          ec2 instance                  
     host_name                      ec2 instance                  
     check_interval                 5                             
     address                        ec2-184-73-81-137.compute-1.amazonaws.com
     max_check_attempts             2                             
}

But I get this error and can't really do anything about it. Ideas?

[andresriancho]

Same thing happens when I try to create a new service.

Can you check if /etc/nagios/adagios is configured in nagios.cfg, you can check with:

pynag config --get cfg_dir

If it is missing you can add it with:

pynag config --append cfg_dir=/etc/nagios/adagios

[andresriancho]

root@ubuntu:/opt/adagios# pynag config --get cfg_dir
/etc/nagios-plugins/config
/etc/nagios3/conf.d
root@ubuntu:/opt/adagios# 

I think that means it is set?

[tomas-edwardsson]

No, the adagios cfg_dir is missing:

pynag config --append cfg_dir=/etc/nagios3/adagios
