 Description   

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create an item of type log, as active check towards a solaris agent ( release 11 on sparc at least ) 
  2. write some lines to to log file ( echo "test" >> /tmp/test.log )
  3. wait for results 

Result:

Nothing is returned

Nothing is in the log file ( eventually some config error ), either on server than on agent.
This item works perfectly on a Linux machine.
Also at Debug 4 can't get any info.

Expected:

To get lines written to the file reported to the history of  the item .

Provide to the bug report:

  • agent log with DebugLevel=5
  • output from: zabbix_agentd -V
  • exact solaris solaris 11.x

Also check that Active checks are working.

Comment by Alexey Pustovalov [ 2024 Oct 16 ]

Please share Zabbix agent log with DebugLevel = 5.

Hello, 

solaris version is 11.4.54 ):

root@srvtest19c:~# pkg info entire | grep Version
          Version: 11.4 (Oracle Solaris 11.4.54.138.1)
 
but it also happens on other versions.
root@srvtest19c:~# /opt/zabbix-agent/sbin/zabbix_agentd -V

Running with OpenSSL 3.0.14 4 Jun 2024
Attached a debug log lvl5 with restart of agent and during the capture time I've created a new log item and after a while I've deleted it.

Not sure what you mean with "Also check that Active checks are working."

In case, on other platform ( Linux ) they are working ATM.

Just to let you know, I've compiled the 7.0.4 version of agent unser solaris 11 sparc and it seems to work.

I've the created the same exact item on my previous host ( where it was not working ) and with the exact same item it does not works.
Only difference I can see, on thi s newly compiled agent and newly machine there are no passice check, only this log item.

Another note: the agent I have compiled has different linked library:

root@srvtstzbx:~# ldd /usr/local/zabbix/sbin/zabbix_agentd
        libpthread.so.1 =>       /lib/64/libpthread.so.1
        libkvm.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/64/libkvm.so.1
        libm.so.2 =>     /lib/64/libm.so.2
        libkstat.so.1 =>         /lib/64/libkstat.so.1
        libresolv.so.2 =>        /lib/64/libresolv.so.2

        libelf.so.1 =>   /lib/64/libelf.so.1
        libucrypto.so.1 =>       /lib/64/libucrypto.so.1
        libz.so.1 =>     /lib/64/libz.so.1
        libcryptoutil.so.1 =>    /lib/64/libcryptoutil.so.1
        libbsm.so.1 =>   /lib/64/libbsm.so.1
        libtsol.so.2 =>  /lib/64/libtsol.so.2
        libinetutil.so.1 =>      /lib/64/libinetutil.so.1

In this one there is the pcre ( that seems to be quite important in log item IMHO ).

The one d/loaded from zabbix site as p5p has this libraries linked:

root@srvtest19c:~# ldd /opt/zabbix-agent/sbin/zabbix_agentd
        libsocket.so.1 =>        /lib/64/libsocket.so.1

        libpthread.so.1 =>       /lib/64/libpthread.so.1
        libkvm.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/64/libkvm.so.1
        libm.so.2 =>     /lib/64/libm.so.2
        libkstat.so.1 =>         /lib/64/libkstat.so.1
        libresolv.so.2 =>        /lib/64/libresolv.so.2
        libc.so.1 =>     /lib/64/libc.so.1
        libelf.so.1 =>   /lib/64/libelf.so.1
        libucrypto.so.1 =>       /lib/64/libucrypto.so.1
        libz.so.1 =>     /lib/64/libz.so.1
        libcryptoutil.so.1 =>    /lib/64/libcryptoutil.so.1
        libbsm.so.1 =>   /lib/64/libbsm.so.1
        libtsol.so.2 =>  /lib/64/libtsol.so.2
        libinetutil.so.1 =>      /lib/64/libinetutil.so.1

And there is not a pcre linked in.

Could be this the problem ?

In case is needed, here is the configure I've used:

 

./configure \
--prefix=/usr/local/zabbix \
--enable-agent  \
--disable-server \
--disable-proxy \
--with-libpcre-include=/usr/include/pcre/

using the pcre from:

all other libraries ( as this BTW ) are from a standard Solaris installation.

I think I' ve found.

Probably ( need more testing ) the problem is in my configuration: I have 2 host configured for the same IP, but the hostname in the response packet has only the name of one of them, while I had the log item configured on the other one.

I'll keep you informed.

Thank you for the details and update.

Comment by Pierluigi [ 2024 Oct 17 ]

It seems to be working whenthe hostname in the agent conf matches the hostname in the server.

Sorry for the noise. 
It can be closed.

 

Thanks for the attention.
