Bug#341748: ITP: nagios2 -- A host/service/network monitoring and management system
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Sean Finney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 (explanation for why there needs to be a nagios2 given after the blurb) Package name: nagios2 Version : 2.0 (when released) Upstream Author : Ethan Galstad URL : http://www.nagios.org/ License : GPL Description : A host/service/network monitoring and management system Nagios is a replacement of the Netsaint project. It accept and uses the previous Netsaint modules transparently. . Nagios is a host/service/network monitoring and management system. It has the following features: . o Monitoring of network services (via TCP port, SMTP, POP3, HTTP, NNTP, PING, etc.) o Plugin interface to allow for user-developed service checks o Contact notifications when problems occur and get resolved (via email, pager, or user-defined method) o Ability to define event handlers to be run during service or host events (for proactive problem resolution) o Web output (current status, notifications, problem history, log file, etc.) . Nagios was written in C and is designed to be easy to understand and modify to fit your own needs. . This package contains the next-generation version of the nagios daemon. If you want to install nagios and do not need MySQL or PostgreSQL support, you should install this package. some skeptics may be asking "why do we need a nagios2? why can't we have just one version of nagios in debian?". the answer is that we in fact already have 3 different versions of nagios, one with standard file-based support, a mysql version, and a pgsql version (which are differentiated at compile time). nagios2 does not currently have db support, but will very likely through add-on modules at a future date/time. because this would break existing installations that use the db support, there will be a certain period where nagios2 and nagios co-exist in the archives. after transitional support has been worked out, it will replace the standard file flavor of nagios, and as db support is added in the other two versions will disappear as well. In the end, i aim to have a single "nagios" package, though it will probably take a bit for this to materialize. i'll shortly be importing an initial version of nagios2 into the nagios alioth project cvs archives. if anyone is interested in helping maintain this (or other nagios related packages), please contact me privately as i can always use some assistance! sean -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDkIWWynjLPm522B0RAgvuAJ0c9o5yL8OBkXxceebOxyydFiD0swCeO4Xr Yg1/K2tcct4wTisehqF94ow= =i3JZ -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

If > it does, I couldn't find it. If it doesn't, what are the chances of this > being added? unfortunately, it doesn't currently. the problem is that dbconfig-common as it stands is agnostic to the contents of the databases that it creates. that is, basically, it creates the users/databases, and then leaves it to the maintainer-provided sql/script to create and populate the tables. the benefit of this is that things are much simpler and less prone to failure/bugs. the drawback, obviously, is that there isn't a way to do this. however, i am open to ideas for how this could be implmented. here's some thoughts off the top of my head: at the very least, dbconfig-common could hold the common debconf template, so that multiple packages could benefit from having the text pre-translated. perhaps later dbc could be extended to handle the prompting logic so that packages needing/wanting this could set another dbc_foo variable in the maintscripts which would trigger the extra prompting logic, and the result could get stored in the packages' dbc config file. it would still be the packagers' responsibility to ensure that the table prefixes are correctly used when creating the tables, which means that the simple sql-file install method is out and they would have to use the script method for installing the db, but it's an improvement, anyway. btw: how is phpbb currently handling this? i think as a final step, perhaps dbc could do something like 's/create table /create table $dbc_tbl_prefix/' on static sql files, but this seems a little fragile to me so i'd only want to do it after being able to do the other stuff reliably... and even then i'd still be a little anxious about it. what do you think? sean -- signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Bug#342244: mysql-dfsg-5.0: FTBFS on hppa
hi -admin and -devel, executive summary: mysterious and unreproducible ftbfs for mysql, and perhaps other packages on the hppa architecture. a faulty buildd (sarti) is suspected, but afaict all requests for information remain unanswered. i'm suspecting hardware problems, as for mysql this is not the first such ftbfs[1]. originally, a similarly mysterious error occurred where the build didn't even start because installing tetex-bin failed. Frank Küster followed up[2] with debian-hppa as well as debian-admin about the problem, but afaik recieved no response. now, mysql is failing during the execution of debian/rules, in a chunk of code doing no more than a find/xargs/rm[3]. the buildd reports that the job failed do to a lack of activity for more than 150 minutes[4].

Bug#344519: Reload cacti graph page generates mysql zombie process for every graph
tags 344519 unreproducible moreinfo thanks hi epco, i'll need some more information if you would like to have help with resolving this. here are a few questions off the top of my head: - what version of mysql? - remote mysql server or local? - what's in my.cnf? - how many devices (and what kind) are you monitoring? - have you tried the suggestions from the forum report mentioned? - is this problem present with both cactid and cmd.php? - what else is using the database? - does the problem immediately happen after reboot, or only after running for some period of time? i'm tagging this as moreinfo and unreproducible... if i can't find a way to reproduce it within some period of time, i'm going to downgrade the severity too. sean -- signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Does anybody know what is wrong? check_nagios actually checks data inside the file for a timestamp, so the fact that it has a size of zero makes me suspect this may be the root of the problem. might want to make sure the nagios daemon is actually writing into there and not somewhere else. also, might want to make sure that /etc/init.d/nagios stop actually stops nagios, as there seem to be spurious problems of runaway nagios processes when restarting the daemon. sean -- signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Bug#311695: bug #311695: i'm not getting updates, wierd
strange, i'm not sure why, but i've missed out on everything past the first post. my guess is that there's something wrong with the alioth mailing lists (where the bug reports should be sent) or something, but, eh anyway, i'm a bit hesitant to be patching nagios this close to sarge, no matter how simple the patch seems. so unless i hear any convincing objections, i'll include it in the next non-sarge upload. sean -- signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Bug#311836: mysql-server init.d script: want useful status exit status

Bug#276057: progress on this ITP?
hi evan, how is the progress coming along with this ITP? i'm interested in using this software, but would rather not have to go out of my way to manage it outside of a package management system :) if part of the problem is that you don't have the time to get the database-related stuff setup (or even if you've already done so), might i suggest that you take a look at the dbconfig-common project[1]? currently dbconfig-common only exists in experimental, but it's at a point where if someone wanted to use it in unstable i wouldn't mind uploading it there. sean [1] http://people.debian.org/~seanius/policy/dbconfig-common.html -- signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Bug#291775: any progress on this?
