20 Dec '11

Hi, everyone! We have just released Monit 5.3.2. You can download the new release from: http://mmonit.com/monit/download/ Release information: ==================== BUGFIXES: * Fix bug #34801: The file content match test did reset of the read position in the case that the unmonitor or stop action was done. When the file monitoring was enabled again, the content match test was applied to the content which was tested already. * Log error details in the case that the name resolving failed. * Fix the system cpu usage statistics when pattern based process check is used and the service is restarted. Thanks to Wayne Lawrence for report. * AIX 6.1 compile fix. Thanks to Benedikt Wegmann for patch. * Debian Bug#652715: "include files not found" warning.

[Announce] Monit 5.3.1
by Martin Pala 24 Oct '11

24 Oct '11

Hi, everyone! We have just released Monit 5.3.1. You can download the new release from: http://mmonit.com/monit/download/ Release information: ==================== IMPROVEMENTS: * Log the particular connection attempt failure in debug mode when the retry is enabled. * Monit can deliver events and status to independent M/Monit instances if multiple mmonit URLs are set: set mmonit https://user1:pass1@mmonit1/collector https://user2:pass2@mmonit2/collector BUGFIXES: * The ICMP echo (ping) test may report false positive error if the machine where Monit is running has heavy ICMP traffic generated by other applications. * The file content match test will be performed even on the existing content when Monit starts. The last position is saved to the statefile, so monit won't generate alert after restart. Note that when you start the monit 5.3.1 the first time, it can do actions for content match which was handled by previous monit version already as the previous monit versions didn't saved the position. * Make the monitoring state persistent for manual mode services. * Display the memory usage total % in the status overview. The memory usage in kB displayed the total already, so the percentage didn't match. * Fix the HTML overview page alignment in the Internet Explorer. Thanks to Darhl Thomason for patch. * Extend the SSL library search path for Debian Sid. * Fix Solaris 10 compilation and Sun Studio support. * Fix sporadic SSL routines:func(169):reason(161) errors * If MySQL protocol test failed, report the correct MySQL error code. Thanks to Vitaly Lipatov for patch. Contact: ======== If you have questions, comments or any other feedback about this release, please reply to this post. Best regards from the Monit team

[Announce] M/Monit 2.3.4
by Jan-Henrik Haukeland 29 Mar '11

29 Mar '11

Hi, everyone! We have just released M/Monit 2.3.4. You can download the new release from: http://mmonit.com/download/ Release information: ==================== Improvements * The IP-address of Monit is now automatically set based on the address reported by Monit. M/Monit previously set the address based on the connection made by Monit and updated the IP-address only once when the host is new. If a proxy was setup in front of M/Monit this address would be of the proxy and not of the Monit host. By making Monit report its IP-address instead , the address should always be correct and current since Monit reports the address at connection time. Because the Monit IP-address is now automatically set by Monit, users can no longer change this address manually. If you need to specify another outbound address for Monit, click the "Override IP-address and port " link in admin/hosts/edit page and specify the Monit address and port number in the "Outbound IP-address for Monit" and "Outbound Port for Monit" fields respectively. * Users can now enter a DNS hostname in Monit's outbound IP-address field and the name will be resolved when M/Monit connects to Monit. Bug fixes * Fixed a crash which could happen when processing message from Monit. Upgrading from previous M/Monit versions: ========================================= Please perform the following to upgrade from the previous version: /upgrade/upgrade-2.3.x-2.3.4.sh -t [sqlite|mysql|postresql] Upgrading from older versions: ./upgrade/upgrade-2.1.x-2.3.4.sh -t [sqlite|mysql|postresql] or ./upgrade/upgrade-2.2.x-2.3.4.sh -t [sqlite|mysql|postresql] Contact: ======== If you have questions, comments or any other feedback about this release, please contact us at info(a)mmonit.com Best regards from the M/Monit team

[Announce] M/Monit 2.3.3
by Jan-Henrik Haukeland 06 Feb '11

06 Feb '11

Hello, everyone! We have just released M/Monit 2.3.3 You can download the new release from: http://mmonit.com/download/ Release information: ==================== Improvements * Changed user's default refresh settings for charts and tables from 1 minute to 5 seconds so monit status changes and new events reload faster in the GUI. * Improved SQLite thread-locking strategy Bug fixes * The descriptive hostname is only updated once for new hosts so it can be overridden by admin later. In previous versions, M/Monit continued to updated and overwrite the hostname based on the DNS name of the host. * If Monit's id file is empty for some reason, M/Monit reported that Monit is older than the required version, even if the version was OK. The id attribute was moved in Monit 5.2 and if M/Monit did not find the id element, it assumed that the Monit version was too old. The error message has been fixed to describe the problem correctly. * Fixed a problem if two hosts had the same hostname a JSON error occurred when adding a new alert rule. Upgrading from previous M/Monit versions: ========================================= Please perform the following to upgrade from the previous version: /upgrade/upgrade-2.3.x-2.3.3.sh -t [sqlite|mysql|postresql] Upgrading from older versions: ./upgrade/upgrade-2.1.x-2.3.3.sh -t [sqlite|mysql|postresql] or ./upgrade/upgrade-2.2.x-2.3.3.sh -t [sqlite|mysql|postresql] Contact: ======== If you have questions, comments or any other feedback about this release, please contact us at info(a)mmonit.com Best regards from the M/Monit team

Hi, everyone! We have just released M/Monit 2.3.2 You can download the new release from: http://mmonit.com/download/ Release information: ==================== Improvements * Security: updated OpenSSL to 1.0.0b. See OpenSSL security advisor; http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20101116.txt To prevent further OpenSSL problems in this area we have also disabled the OpenSSL session cache in M/Monit. * Updated SQLite to version 3.7.3 Bug fixes * Fixed events link from status detail to the events page.

Bugfix: Events detail style
by Jan-Henrik Haukeland 05 Nov '10

05 Nov '10

Hi Please copy the attached files to docroot/status/ to replace the old index.csp and detail.csp to fix a problem where the events detailed page is not properly styled. Problem description: -------------------- Thanks to Jody Clements we have discovered a small problem when clicking on the events link from the status or from the status detail page. After clicking the events link and then trying to view events detail, the events detail page is not properly styled and looks like this: This problem is caused by an extra 'list' in the URL path which cause the URL path level to be off and thereby causing the page CSS to no load properly. That extra 'list' should not be part of the URL and the URL should be: /reports/events/?Events_Host(..) instead of /reports/events/list?Events_Host(..). Copying the attached template files to docroot/status will fix this problem. Best regards -- Jan-Henrik Haukeland http://tildeslash.com/ ☏: +47 97141255

[Announce] M/Monit 2.3
by Jan-Henrik Haukeland 23 Sep '10

23 Sep '10

Hi, everyone! We have just released M/Monit 2.3. You can download the new release from: http://mmonit.com/download/ This new version of M/Monit sports a subtle improved user interface. New uptime reports for your hosts and services, which we hope you will like. The ability to execute a program as an alert action, in addition to email and jabber. Automatic registration of Monit credentials; when Monit registers now, it is really plug-and-play without the need to manually edit Monit hosts credentials in M/Monit. (Automatic registration of credentials can be turned off in your monitrc file, though we recommend using SSL instead with Monit and M/Monit if security is a concern). The M/Monit manual is updated to reflect the new changes; http://mmonit.com/monit/documentation/ This release requires the new Monit 5.2 version which we also released today. To simplify things we now also provide prebuilt binaries of Monit. So you can either build Monit from source or download a binary for your system. The binaries have OpenSSL 1.0.0a static linked and support SSL without OpenSSL having to be installed on your system. Download Monit 5.2 from http://mmonit.com/monit/download/ Release information: ==================== Improvements * New Report pages for hosts and services uptime and downtime. * Added execution of user defined programs/scripts as an alert option when receiving events from Monit * Improved user interface * Host details: * New charts: swap memory, CPU and memory * Service data displayed in a new pop-out panel * Sorted port response time chart * Optional automatic registration of Monit credentials * Internal cache improvements * TCP/IP and SSL improvements. Should improve communication over low-bandwidth and saturated networks. * Reduced memory usage. M/Monit never used a lot of memory before, but now it use even less. Bug fixes * Make M/Monit less strict when handling SMTP multi-line responses. Thanks to Barynin Konstantin for letting us know. * Fix crash during mmonit start on FreeBSD-8.x * Workaround libpthread bug in OS X which caused one CPU core to max out and M/Monit to become unresponsive if run in background mode. M/Monit now works fine in daemon mode on OS X. * Fixed infrequent connection close. In some situations M/Monit could drop connections in mid-communication if the client was "slow" to respond. * Fixed login problems for user account during which's create/edit some input data format check failed and the form was re-submitted after correction of the input. Upgrading from M/Monit 2.1.x or 2.2.x: ====================================== If you are upgrading from M/Monit 2.1.x or 2.2.x please perform the following to upgrade the database: ./upgrade/upgrade-2.1.x-2.3.sh -t [sqlite|mysql|postresql] or ./upgrade/upgrade-2.2.x-2.3.sh -t [sqlite|mysql|postresql] Browser Cache: Please clear your Browser cache before login to M/Monit 2.3. Some pages have been changed and cached pages from the previous version may create problems. Known issues: ============= None Contact: ======== If you have questions, comments or any other feedback about this release, please contact us at info(a)mmonit.com Best regards from the M/Monit team

[Announce] M/Monit 2.2.1
by Jan-Henrik Haukeland 16 Mar '10

16 Mar '10

Hi everyone, M/Monit 2.2.1 has just been released. This is a bug fix release that can be download from: http://mmonit.com/download/ Release information: ==================== Improvements * Changed name of admin menu item "Rules" to "Alerts" to make it clearer that this page is used for setting up alert rules. * Accept messages from future Monit versions (no need to upgrade M/Monit when Monit is extended). Bug fixes * Fix JSON error in rules admin page, when empty hostgroup was defined. Thanks to Balazs Boros for report. * Fixed a problem in service cache that could drain the database connection pool of available database connections. Upgrading from M/Monit 2.2: =========================== There are no database changes in this release. Please run the following commands if you want to copy your configuration, database and logs to the new installation: cp -a mmonit-2.2/conf/. mmonit-2.2.1/conf/ cp -a mmonit-2.2/logs/. mmonit-2.2.1/logs/ cp -dp mmonit-2.2/db/mmonit.db mmonit-2.2.1/db/ On (some) FreeBSD and Mac OS X systems use instead: cp -Rpv mmonit-2.2/conf/. mmonit-2.2.1/conf/ cp -Rpv mmonit-2.2/logs/. mmonit-2.2.1/logs/ cp -pv mmonit-2.2/db/mmonit.db mmonit-2.2.1/db/ Known issues: ============= Mac OS X 10.6.x (Snow Leopard): There is a bug in the system library, libpthread, which, if M/Monit is run in daemon mode will result in that one CPU core will max out and M/Monit becomes unresponsive. The workaround is to only run M/Monit in the foreground using the -i switch to the mmonit program.
