Suggestion from community. Why not leave Jabber support in server code, without offficially supporting it? People that are using it now could continue doing it so building manually libiksemel library. |
Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2019 Sep 11 ] |
But then we need to leave Jabber support both in the user interface and in the API code. Otherwise, it will be impossible to configure it. Better use scripts to send messages to Jabber. You also need to take into account that in packages we are not support Jabber library. |

Dimir, keeping dead unsupported code in the main codebase is not good. We've been there, it has never worked well. |

But what about https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBXNEXT-5372 ? |
Comment by Alexei Vladishev [ 2019 Sep 11 ] |
Denis, sorry I don't get what you are asking. |
Comment by Denis Golius aka Terry Filch [ 2019 Sep 11 ] |
I mean, that Zabbix Team will add import/export for media types instead supporting Jabber/etc old media types in Zabbix Core? |
Comment by Alexei Vladishev [ 2019 Sep 11 ] |
Denis, both ZBXNEXT requests are fully independent and will be delivered in Zabbix 4.4. |
Comment by Mikhail Grigorev [ 2019 Sep 11 ] |
There is a fork of the iksemel library that is developing |

Dear palivoda, regarding Description.
What kind of error messages this dummy script will result in? "Cannot send notification: script 'dummy' not found"? I think preserving media types will help produce better error messages when deprecated media types are used. |

Dear cherts, 0 stars, 1 watcher (repository owner), 1 open issue and 1 closed issue — I wouldn't call it "developing". |

Comment by Glebs Ivanovskis [ 2019 Sep 24 ] |
This phrase leaves an impression that user has nothing to worry about. One may think "No Jabber, but at least there is a script media type and all the parameters are preserved. Seems fine!" I think Upgrade Notes should be very explicit about the fact that notifications via Jabber and EZText will stop working. |
Comment by Martins Valkovskis [ 2019 Sep 24 ] |
Thanks, the updated wording is clear that the notifications via Jabber/EZ Texting will not work any more. |
