Nector Save error

[gandalf]

Again, which exact browser version?
Are you able to test using a different browser?
R.

[zoemu]

firefox (with firebug), explorer and opera......

[gandalf]

Did I already ask you to post the web pages source code (Ctrl-U in FF)?

If there is no such "id" named "row_font_size", all would be clear. But I always have that, so the "is null" case should not occur.
Ok, I could add an "is null" check just as the display value would not be set. But I still wonder why this happens and why I can't reproduce

it is working now....there was an error on one the database tables(no idea, what happened to it)

backed up the data, recreated the database.

Works fine now....

Thank you

I've found how to fix this error when adding new items to report.

Replace line 721 in nectar_webapi.php to:

Code: Select all

		html_start_box("<strong>Report Items</strong> $header_label", "100%", $colors["header"], "3", "center", ($_SESSION["sess_nectar_level"] != NECTAR_PERM_ADMIN ? "nectar_user.php":"nectar.php") . "?action=item_edit&id=" . htmlspecialchars($_GET["id"]));

the problem was that "&" symbol was replaced to & and so "id" argument was omitted.

Thank you for posting; but which version of nectar is this based upon?

The error is caused by wrong parsing of ampersent char.
When you create a new report, switch to "Items" tab and point onto "Add" button, you will see link:

http://yourhostname/cacti/plugins/necta ... _edit[b][u]&[/u][/b]id=1

And that is causing all trouble. When you click this link, next page - Item creation, will not know to which report to add that item and it will show:

Code: Select all

Report Item [new Report Item: ]

In title, where after "Item: " there should be report name, but as script does not know that, there is empty title.
This bug is caused by line 721 in nectar_webapi.php:

Code: Select all

html_start_box("<strong>Report Items</strong> $header_label", "100%", $colors["header"], "3", "center", htmlspecialchars(($_SESSION["sess_nectar_level"] != NECTAR_PERM_ADMIN ? "nectar_user.php":"nectar.php") . "?action=item_edit&id=" . $_GET["id"]));

The function htmlspecialchars is converting & to &.
The line should be modified, one of solutions is this:

Code: Select all

html_start_box("<strong>Report Items</strong> $header_label", "100%", $colors["header"], "3", "center", htmlspecialchars(($_SESSION["sess_nectar_level"] != NECTAR_PERM_ADMIN ? "nectar_user.php":"nectar.php")) . "?action=item_edit&id=" . htmlspecialchars($_GET["id"]));

PS: Sorry, did not read last two posts, where you have already solved this I just hope, someone will read this and try not to make such a mistake in future

with cacti 0.8.7g and nectar 0.21 I had the same problem.
now it's fixed changing line 702 of nectar_webapi.php with the following:

Code: Select all

html_start_box("<strong>Report Items</strong>", "100%", $colors["header"], "3", "center", htmlspecialchars("nectar.php?action=item_edit")."&id=" . $nectar_id);

great debugging, dudes, thanks!

Looking for some assistance on this old post.... i used the beta version show above to correct this same problem... in doing so, i simply moved the existing nectar directory to a different location and expanded the beta verison in it's place. Problem is, i seem to have lost my existing nectar reports that were already set up... i assume that the data for these reports is stored in the database and not in the ./nectar folder that i moved to a different location right? The new beta version corrected the error i as getting but do i have to recreate all the reports that i had?
