Bad url on template_import.php causing Cross-Origin Request

Post by nb1dev »

Hi,

I'm running 1.2.26, migrated from 0.8.8h.
Everything seems to be good so far.

Except on the import template page.
When I load an XML, the page is trying to load : https://templates_import.php/?preview_only=true
So my browser block for a Cross-Origin Request as the URL isn't well formatted.

My server base URL (base_url) = https://cacti.mydomain.net/
My $url_path = '/';

What can cause the URL for this call to be like that ?

Report that in GitHub and for the time being save the XML to a file and import using a file.

I will open an issue in GitHub, but I am already importing using a XML file.
It's after uploading the XML file that the page refresh trying to open https://templates_import.php/?preview_only=true for the preview before the real import.

On others testing environment of Cacti 1.2.26 that have, this preview works well.
I am wondering if it's related to the migration, a recent change on the base_url or environment (php, apache, ...).
I will try to install a fresh 1.2.26 on the same server to eliminate apache/php.

Edit line 490 in templates_import.php and change to:

Code: Select all

url: (urlPath != '/' ? urlPath + '/':'') + 'templates_import.php?preview_only=true',
Let us know if that fixes it.
