      I'm getting recovery messages after a web scenario fails. The problem is that I don't even have recovery messages enabled. So I get hundreds of recovery messages, but the dashboard never shows the scenario has having recovered (even tho it did recover). To convince Zabbix that the system has recovered I have to disable the web scenario for a while, restart zabbix_server and then re-enable the scenario (this usually works).

      I'm running 1.6.2 with the memory leak patch on Centos 5.2 (32 bit) with all the latest patches and with 1.6.2 compiled the day that the memory patch came out.

      This problem is happening to a number of people. Here's a thread with more info: http://zabbix.com/forum/showthread.php?t=11608
