This might explain the plugin startup issues better. In FF, the window hangs for 10 seconds, then starts. IE, I get this error message

When I do a tcpdump on the server it seems that there is a trailling semi-colon character in the RCPT TO: line.

I ran an sql update command to change my email field for the email rules and remove the trailling semicolon. After doing that my email rules worked fine (both when forcing them to run and when they automatically run).

So I can now confirm that if the trailling semicolon is taken off the email rule works fine. I'm not sure what happens when you have two email addresses. After a bit more digging around I thought I'd change the list of addresses on the rule to my address followed by a comma and then someone else's address. That worked as well.

Could I suggest that maybe the email address format in that field for the rules should be user@domain,user2@domain rather than using a ;?

Based on RFC 2821

4.1.1.3 RECIPIENT (RCPT)

This command is used to identify an individual recipient of the mail
data; multiple recipients are specified by multiple use of this
command. The argument field contains a forward-path and may contain
optional parameters.

I can confirm that this works fine for me. No issues with the trailing ";"

thx gthe

Finally I use uninstall and reinstall camm in pluging manager solve this.

But in 1.6.0 the global search (in database) function can't work, even I install a new camm in another test site.

I don't know why..@@

Looks like it works now

I have the exact same problem with emails. Do you mind giving us the SQL command to fix this issue? Thanks!

This is unusual - what mail server are you guys using ? If it's Exchange, then this definately works.

pdallaire · Post by **pdallaire** » Wed Jul 15, 2009 8:59 am

Well, does it uses Cacti's mail preferences? If so, it's using linux's "sendmail" command and thus, must be why ";" aren't accepted as separators.

mcutting · Post by **mcutting** » Wed Jul 15, 2009 9:00 am

It does use the SETTINGS plugin, so if it's SendMail, then this might be why.

Thanks everyone for your responses.

Here is my SQL statement

Code: Select all

update plugin_camm_rule set email="username@domain" where email<>"";

You'll have to substitute in your email address of course. If you want to add in multiple email addresses just separate them with a comma.

This is unusual - what mail server are you guys using ? If it's Exchange, then this definately works.

I am using exchange as the email server. My cacti is setup to use SMTP for email in the settings plugin. My OS is CentOS (it was built from CactiEZ). Details of the important parts of my build are below.

Cacti Version - 0.8.7c
Plugin Architecture - 2.2
Poller Type - Cactid v
Server Info - Linux 2.6.9-78.0.13.ELvm-smp
Web Server - Apache/2.0.63 (CentOS)
PHP - 5.1.6
Plugins
Global Plugin Settings (settings - v0.6)

I have noticed that the Manage plugin uses a comma as the separator for it's email address field in the settings plugin. That is what started me down the comma path. Either way my impression was that SMTP required mutliple RCPT TO: lines if you had multiple addresses to send to, rather than having a single RCPT TO: line with a semi-colon separated list - when sending to a single address there should be no trailling character.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Peter

Great Plugin, I just got it running here, works great.

I have noticed a slight visual anomaly in the syslog view.

Attached is a screenshot.

Here there's nothing to be done - wider window of a browser is necessary.

I.e. the email address format should be such:

test@test.com

or

test1@test.com, test2@test.com, test2@test2.com

?

pthaynes · Post by **pthaynes** » Thu Jul 16, 2009 5:43 am

gthe,

Both those formats will work (based on my testing and the email setting of SMTP in the settings plugin).

Thanks again for your help.
