Tnx.

Troubles building the source on "CentOS release 6.3 (Final)"

Making all in netxmsd

ldconfig didn't help, can you please indicate what i'm missing ?

Hi!

Try to add --disable-xmpp to configure as a workaround. I'll check what the problem is in the meantime.

Best regards,
Victor

Installation from deb on debian squeeze:

Setting up netxms-server (1.2.12) ...
NetXMS: compiling MIB files
/usr/bin/nxmibc: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Setting up netxms-server-oracle (1.2.12) ...

looks like you migrated to wheezly?

[PeterSentveld]

--disable-xmpp solved the build error.

After starting netxmsd it was 100% cpu for quiet some time (hours !), now its usable.

Thanks, Peter.

Hi Victor,

Is this version supports H3c and shoretel? it was previously request before
https://www.netxms.org/forum/announcements/netxms-1-2-7-released/msg10340/#msg10340

Thanks.

[victor]

Yes, NetXMS 1.2.12 built on Debian 7 (wheezy). I'll publish Debian 6 build shortly as it seems that there are still many Debian 6 installations.

Best regards,
Victor

Debian 6 binaries available at https://www.netxms.org/apt/dists/squeeze/main/

as always, good to have new version full of new features and can't wait for the next release.
what about the "help" issue ? for me, thing are going to slow with configuration due to lack of good documentation of everything.

+1 to that.
A help button that points to sertain places in online documentation would be nice. maybe to points in a wiki.
You could make it a community project so NetXMS enthousiasts can add to the documentation.. that will certainly save you some time.
It's a free product so no harm in making a bit of use of the community. I would even love to help out with that and I'm probably not the only one.

[victor]

Any help with documentation is very welcome You can edit manual in wiki (I'll move it to pdf then), or just create separate articles about how to configure things.

Best regards,
Victor

I just updated to V1.2.12 (on linux 64bit from sources). When I want to upload a new image to the Image Library, I get the error 'Access denied'. I checked then the user group for the new permission 'Manage Image Library', but there is no such item in the list (in java console). See attached printscreen.

Thank you Victor,

personally, i would have helped out more but i believe that i have a lot of missing knowledge to begin with.
an idea for a rapid solution will be to create some sort of a list of all the abilities and possibilities of the system {for example, a list of all the possible subagents} so that at least we will know how to better use the program and with the help of us, the users, fill out every section of the list along the way.

awesome work, awesome software, great excitement with every new release for me. keep up the good work.

Yes, seems that GUI update was forgotten. We will fix it in next patch release.

Hi Victor
Is there some kind of workaround to upload images in the meanwhile?

thanks, Dani

[victor]

There are two workarounds:

1. use built-in "admin" account - it always has all access rights;
2. Assign access rights directly in database. To do so, stop NetXMS server, then execute query like this:

UPDATE users SET system_access=system_access+134217728 WHERE id=insert_user_id_here

and start server.

Best regards,
Victor

[user54119]

that works. thank you

Похоже что каким-то образом создался обьект с пустым именем. Можете прислать результат команды

nxadm -c "show objects"

?
Ну и после этого можно попробовать найти этот обьект и дать ему какое-то имя руками.
