 Description   

Steps to reproduce the issue:

Add Template 'TEST' with Macro {$TESTPORT} and assign it value of 80
Add Item with Key 'tcp,{$TESTPORT}' and Save
This works
But now when I add a trigger for this Item, like '{Test:tcp,{$TESTPORT}.last(0)}=0' and press Save the following error comes up:

Incorrect item key "tcp,{$TESTPORT" is used in expression. Incorrect simple check parameter.
Check expression part starting from " {Test:tcp,{$TESTPORT}.last(0)}=0 "

This bug still exists in the latest Zabbix 1.8 version. Is there any update on this issue or has this been fixed in 2.0?

Comment by richlv [ 2012 May 17 ]

this is fixed for 2.0 as simple checks now use same item key syntax as other items. not sure whether there's backing for a 1.8 fix

Hi,

we have the same issue on our productive environment and it's currently not possible to upgrade to 2.x on our side.
Please fix this in 1.8.

Regards,
Marcel

The problem was fixed in 2.0. I am afraid it cannot be fixed in 1.8.x because of serious limitations of trigger expression parser, which parses macros only of item keys in canonical (i.e. aaa[b,c,d,e]) format.

Any fix in 1.8 will require significant and risky development work. I am not happy about introducing new issues in 1.8.x, let's keep it rock stable.

Sorry for this.
