Centos 5 and NAV 3.2.2
by barbieri.marco＠unimore.it 03 Sep '07

03 Sep '07

Hi, first of all i'm trying to run NAV 3.2.2 on a Centos 5 and i know it's not supported, but with really liitle tweaking the system seem to be up and running, despite the problem i've always had with my HP9304m that i've already posted about (answer pending...). I get some errors from: Cron <navcron@nav> $BINDIR/getBoksMacs.sh $NUM_THREADS the body of the message is at the end of this msg, there's something i can do to fix it or the set of libs that comes with Centos5 is too much different to let NAV work as it is?

Given the OID compatibility report you sent, NAV should be able to detect the ports on this routing switch; the ports are detected using standard mibs. Yet you say that _no_ ports are detected? If that is so, I would like to see what getDeviceData.log says when it collects from this device. When it comes to modules, I must admit that NAV's support for HP equipment is lacking in several respects. The HP support was written and tested using the equipment that was available at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology at the time, and these were all HP SwitchStacks. Consequently, NAV only recognizes virtual stacking in HP equipment, and cannot at all recognize modules in your HP chassis. It is in our plans to implement more generic module support through interpreting the ENTITY-MIB. I'm guessing your HP9304M presents a fairly correct view of its physical contents through its entPhysicalTable? Since I have no access to a 9304M myself, but am planning to code the ENTITY-MIB support, I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide me with the output of this table from your device; running this command on your NAV server should do it: snmptable -Ci -Cb -v2c -c <community> <ip> entPhysicalTable -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT >From morten.brekkevold at uninett.no Thu Sep 6 12:12:49 2007 From: morten.brekkevold at uninett.no (Morten Brekkevold) Date: Thu Sep 6 11:13:05 2007 Subject: [Nav-users] Centos 5 and NAV 3.2.2 In-Reply-To: <200709031022.52942.barbieri.marco(a)unimore.it> References: <200709031022.52942.barbieri.marco(a)unimore.it> Message-ID: <46DFC491.4070702(a)uninett.no> Marco Barbieri wrote, On 03-09-2007 10:22: > first of all i'm trying to run NAV 3.2.2 on a Centos 5 and i know it's not > supported, That depends on what you mean by "supported" :) We do not guaruantee support to anyone, but you should be able to have NAV up and run on any Linux distro. The most common obstacle seems to be when some software that NAV depends on comes out with a new version that breaks some backwards compatibility. > I get some errors from: > > Cron <navcron@nav> $BINDIR/getBoksMacs.sh $NUM_THREADS > > the body of the message is at the end of this msg, there's something i can do > to fix it or the set of libs that comes with Centos5 is too much different to > let NAV work as it is? > > Thanks for reading and my best regards, Marco barbieri. > > ---Body--- > org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: This statement has been closed. > at > org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.checkClosed(postgresql-jdbc-8.1.407.jar.so) [...] I think I've seen this before, and it happened when we upgraded our PostgreSQL JDBC driver to version 8.1. I'm not sure what changed, since the API should remain the same - only the driver should work better against PostgreSQL 8.1. I assume that your CentOS installation runs the PostgreSQL 8.1 server as well? Our temporary workaround was to downgrade the JDBC driver to the 7.4 version. You could try and see if that works. If CentOS 5 doesn't provide that version of the driver, you can get it from http://jdbc.postgresql.org/ -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT >From mels at mels-kooijman.nl Thu Sep 6 22:01:53 2007 From: mels at mels-kooijman.nl (Mels) Date: Thu Sep 6 21:02:09 2007 Subject: [Nav-users] Centos 5 and NAV 3.2.2 In-Reply-To: <46DFC491.4070702(a)uninett.no> References: <200709031022.52942.barbieri.marco(a)unimore.it> <46DFC491.4070702(a)uninett.no> Message-ID: <46E04EA1.3010906(a)mels-kooijman.nl> Hi all, I started this week with a clean system, installing nav on Suse 10.2 There was a problem with connecting to a remote database, for the time i use the local database, witch is OK for nav.

Mailing list problems
by morten.brekkevold＠uninett.no 17 Jul '07

17 Jul '07

We still seem to be having problems with our mailing list setup. nav-commit and nav-dev are confirmed to be working fine, but nav-users apparently doesn't. Some subscribers seem to be getting the mails sent to nav-dev(a)itea.ntnu.no, while others are not (myself included). However, none of these mails are stored in the mailing list archives. I've asked the guys at itea.ntnu.no to take a look at this problem, but apparently all their postmasters have taken their summer vacations simultaineously (!), so I cannot really say when this problem will be fixed. I would have moved the mailing lists to a different server to ensure continued service, were it not for the fact that I'll be taking 4 weeks of vacation starting today. Therefore I've asked John-Magne, the second list administrator, to try to influence things at itea.ntnu.no while I'm gone. Some of you might get this e-mail, and some of you might not, I don't know. If some of you who receive this e-mail can respond to it, maybe we can gather enough clues as to what is wrong that the postmasters (or acting postmasters or whatever) at itea.ntnu.no can fix the problem. If not, the list may be defunct for the next 4 weeks :-( -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT

How to add Cisco 6506 in MetaNAV

The reason for this is that it is quite impossible to create good generic config for servers in Cricket, and that the attempt NAV does spur a lot of errors . I strongly suggest that you make your own cricket-config for server statistics and remove the one present. To remove the existing config, delete the server-directory from $cricket/cricket-config, and edit the cricket-config/.nav-file (mind the dot) and remove servers from the dirs-variable. This will make sure the config will not be recreated. Then run compile from $cricket/cricket as navcron (sudo navcron ./compile). However, we are working on a new version of the script that makes cricket-config. This version will combine the advantages of the NAV-database and user-customization in a much better way than today. Both we and, I hope, our users look forward to this. :) Yours, -- John-Magne Bredal NTNU

The first happens as getDeviceData tries to update the database to register that a box supports a given SNMP OID. The second happens as NAV tries to update an entry in the swport table. You'd have to look at the code of the JDBC driver to be able to see what could cause NullPointerExceptions at those particular lines (AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:53 and AbstractJdbc1Statement.java:274), but I don't even know which version of the driver you are using. -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT >From morten.brekkevold at uninett.no Thu Mar 15 12:40:27 2007 From: morten.brekkevold at uninett.no (Morten Brekkevold) Date: Thu Mar 15 12:40:30 2007 Subject: [Nav-users] NAV 3.2.1 from snapshot on ubuntu server problem In-Reply-To: <45F511D2.7080401(a)carnet.hr> References: <45F511D2.7080401(a)carnet.hr> Message-ID: <45F930AB.7010902(a)uninett.no> Silvije wrote, On 12-03-2007 09:39: > File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mod_python/apache.py", line > 461, in import_module > f, p, d = imp.find_module(parts[i], path) > > ImportError: No module named nav > > > I am using apache2 and configured nav web as virtualhost on port 8888 > > Is this ok to do or not? > > I think I got all dependencies right.

I'm not sure that Apache/mod_python would pick up on the PYTHONPATH environment variable, you might have to use some mod_python configuration parameters in your Apache config to specify the python path. A better approach for an installation from source on Ubuntu would be to add a file in /etc/python called 'sitecustomize.py', and add something like this to it: import sys sys.path.append('/usr/local/nav/lib/python') This module will be loaded by all Python programs that are run on your Ubuntu system. On another note, you should try the Debian package of NAV on Ubuntu. I think Ubuntu is similar enough to Debian for it to work, and it would make life a lot easier for you (dependency-wise, anyway). -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT >From morten.brekkevold at uninett.no Thu Mar 15 12:48:56 2007 From: morten.brekkevold at uninett.no (Morten Brekkevold) Date: Thu Mar 15 12:49:02 2007 Subject: [Nav-users] LDAP Authentication In-Reply-To: <4ddd24660703120903gc499f13gfacb5ffaf19eba9c(a)mail.gmail.com> References: <4ddd24660703120903gc499f13gfacb5ffaf19eba9c(a)mail.gmail.com> Message-ID: <45F932A8.5080702(a)uninett.no> Greg Cooper wrote, On 12-03-2007 17:03: > Is anyone using LDAP to authenticate users on the web interface? > > if so, how did you go about doing it? First of all, take a look at this URL: http://metanav.ntnu.no/moin.cgi/LdapAuthentication Second of all, NAVs LDAP authentication ability is somewhat limited yet. It was modeled after the LDAP schema used at NTNU, and isn't quite configurable enough to suit any kind of LDAP schema people might care to implement. Specifically, NAV will grant access to all users in the configured subtree, which is not always desirable. At NTNU there were separate subtrees of user accounts for different systems; there was also a subtree of NAV accounts which contained only a fraction of the total amount of users. It also makes assumptions about which attributes are used to store account names and user names, etc. Fixing this isn't a very high priority at the moment, but if anybody cares to do something about it, the code is located in subsystem/webFront/lib/nav/web/ldapAuth.py .

When I go through > Cricket and browse to that box, I see the stats and it works fine. > Is there something I can do to fix this? I have a theory about what's going on. If you add an IP Device to NAV, and NAV is unable to do a reverse lookup of its IP address, it will use the device's IP address as its sysname (NAV always uses DNS names in the sysname column, for some old, obscure reason). So when makecricketconfig.pl generates cricket configuration, it sees that the name of the box is 10.8.250.3, and creates config based on that. It also registers in the rrd_file table that /usr/local/nav/cricket/cricket-config/../cricket-data/switch-ports/10.8.250.3/9_16.rrd belongs to this box. Then, later, NAV is able to perform a reverse lookup on 10.8.250.3 and sets the sysname of the box to DNS_NAME. Next time makecricketconfig.pl runs, it creates a cricket config entry for DNS_NAME, and ignores/discards the old 10.8.250.3 config. It also registers that /usr/local/nav/cricket/cricket-config/../cricket-data/switch-ports/DNS_NAME/9_16.rrd belongs to this box. So now, the rrd_file table says that there are two RRD files for the 9_16 interface of DNS_NAME. One of them might no longer exist, but it might sort first in the table, making the IP device browser attempt to use this file instead of the real one. I think you can fix it by running "cleanrrds.pl -r", which removes any entry from rrd_file that doesn't correspond to an existing file in the file system. This is just my best guess, though. I don't know why /usr/local/nav/cricket/cricket-config/../cricket-data/switch-ports/10.8.250.3/9_16.rrd disappears, though, as nothing in NAV deletes that. It might never have been created (e.g. makecricketconfig was run, but Cricket was never run until the DNS name had been resolved and makecricketconfig ran again). -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT >From annaliu at us.ibm.com Sat Mar 24 10:42:11 2007 From: annaliu at us.ibm.com (Anna Liu) Date: Sat Mar 24 18:42:24 2007 Subject: [Nav-users] Question in Configuring NAS Message-ID: <OFA51A9242.C09767EA-ON882572A6.006D229B-882572A8.00613DBD(a)us.ibm.com> I'm new in NAV.

As far as your cricket problem down there, I think someone else from the list will have to tell you definitively what the problem is. I can offer the following advice, though: When you make any changes to your cricket installation remember to always su to navcron. Everything under cricket should be owned by the navcron user, I believe. If you want to update your cricket installation, su to navcron, run bin/makecricketconfig.pl, then cricket/cricket/compile.

Yes, we (UiO) uses LDAP for authentication. In /usr/local/nav/etc/webfront/webfront.conf : [ldap] enabled = yes server = ldaps://xxx.uio.no binddn= cn=yyy,cn=zzz,dc=uio,dc=no And if your ldap requires it (ours do), you allso need correct settings in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf.

You have probably not disabled SELinux like it says in the installation manual. Run this command as root to check: [root@nav3 ~]# sestatus SELinux status: disabled If you get something other than "disabled" you will either have to configure SELinux to work with NAV or disable SELinux. If you want to disable SELinux do this: To just test if this is the problem run this command: [root@nav3 ~]# setenforce 0 and try to reload the webpage. To disable it permanently edit this file: /etc/sysconfig/selinux to say: SELINUX=disabled and reboot the server. - Roger

Memory leaks in getDeviceData
by morten.brekkevold＠uninett.no 09 Mar '07

09 Mar '07

Some of you have noticed problems with getDeviceData running out of Java heap memory, and then getting out of sync with the PostgreSQL database driver - it ends up doing strange updates to the database. The issue is described in this bug report: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1675508&group_id=1… For the technically inclined, here's a complete summary: I've traced the problem back to the Java SNMP package provided by drexel.edu. This package is used by the getDeviceData and getBoksMacs NAV processes to perform SNMP queries. The problem is an infinite loop, in which the library sends the same GETNEXT request over and over, and growing a list of SNMP responses until the heap is full. In a getDeviceData context, this problem can occur during OID testing of a device (This is when gDD attempts to figure which SNMP OIDs a new device supports). When the OID tester attempts to query an OID using GETNEXT requests, it uses the Java SNMP package's method for snmpwalking a MIB tree (retrieveMIBTable). If the OID is outside the MIB view of an SNMPv2c device, the device will respond with an SNMPv2 endOfMibView exception. Ufortunately, the retrieveMIBTable method of drexel's Java SNMP package treats this exception as just another value and adds it to the list of responses. Since the exception's object identifier is the same as the one used in the GETNEXT request, the method will continue to issue GETNEXT requests for the same OID until it no longer receives any response, or until it runs out of memory, whichever comes first. I've written two different patches to fix the problem in the Java SNMP Package, and I have submitted these patches to the upstream authors. The simplest patch is available at the aforementioned bug report page, for those who want to apply it themselves. I'm also planning to write a workaround for NAV. It is quite unnecessary for the NAV OID tester to walk entire SNMP tables just to test OID compatibility. Issuing a single GETNEXT request should be enough to determine whether the OID is supported or not. By doing this, the OID tester can avoid using the retrieveMIBTable method of the drexel library entirely. -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT >From gwc2004 at gmail.com Sat Mar 10 07:49:28 2007 From: gwc2004 at gmail.com (Greg Cooper) Date: Sat Mar 10 14:49:35 2007 Subject: [Nav-users] getDeviceData Java errors Message-ID: <4ddd24660703100549m38e8bf53l858b508ce07b4069(a)mail.gmail.com> Hi all.

Cricket is rather CPU and I/O demanding, so it depends a bit on your hardware. If you have dual CPU's you may get an increase in performance by configuring Cricket to use several processes. This is done by editing the subtree-sets file (located in the cricket-directory). This file defines the "sets" of directories you collect from. One set equals one process. Try to add one (or more) sets, preferably so that the number of ports in each set is about the same. Also remember to update the $NAVinstall/etc/cron.d/cricket file and add a cron-job for the new sets (the collect-subtrees job), and restart cricket with "nav restart cricket". NB: This will increase the CPU and I/O load on your server considerably. Cricket is not the most efficient program, and for bigger installations it is common to use a dedicated server (or more) for Cricket. At NTNU we are going to test this as we are currently only gathering data from a small subset of our network because of the load on the server. There was a discussion on the cricket-users mailing list some months ago (first post from 21. nov.) regarding this issue. It had the title "Huge Cricket installations". It seems that the forum is down (http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=cricket-users) but if it comes up you can read that thread for more thorough information. > I read that collect-subtrees can collect from devices in parallel.

You probably mean bridge table, anyway, are you sure? For Cisco I've read that you can do this: "You can generate SNMP traps whenever a MAC address change occurs by enabling the set snmp trap enable macnotification command in conjunction with enabling the set cam notification and set cam notification historysize commands." I haven't tested it yet, maybe someone out there has? We have SNMP trap on TODO for NAV 3.3, we are thinking of an implementation that can trigger certain scripts on a given snmp trap oid. We see to very interesting use cases: * when linkdown/up trap is detected update the cooresponding link value in the swport/gwport database table. * when a new mac address is seen/gone trigger a script that opens/closes corresponding machine tracker records (cam table). This script could also post alarms regarding wanted mac addresses. - Vidar

Normally, cricket-compile is run if necessary at the start of each collection run - which is at least every 5 minutes. You might be seeing this error because of file permission problems.

Can this be done today? On a small scale such as having only 1 MAC address that you need to catch, you could configure your DHCP servers to assign this MAC a specific IP. With the suspect confined to a known set of IP addresses you could also setup a sniffer on the external routes to capture all traffic from those IPs to see for yourself if there is abuse.

Get error when adding IP device "Gw router - layer 3 device"

Some devices also return integer values for serial numbers instead of strings - attempting to encode an integer object as if it were a string will fail miserably, as in your case. I've just committed a fix for this to the repository (r3785). We're expecting to release NAV 3.2 within a few weeks, so I don't think you will see this in a bugfix release before that. Several others have reported this problem, and a workaround has been suggested: Use bulk import to insert the devices that cause this error - the serial numbers are not retrieved and checked in this manner during a bulk import. -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT >From barbieri.marco at unimore.it Mon Jan 8 12:06:48 2007 From: barbieri.marco at unimore.it (Marco Barbieri) Date: Mon Jan 8 12:07:05 2007 Subject: [Nav-users] Problem with HP 9304m & vlan Message-ID: <200701081206.48961.barbieri.marco(a)unimore.it> Hi all, i'm trying to use NAV 3.1.1 in my environment, my main problem seems to be that my network in mainly based on HP router/switches: 9304m (foundry/hp), procurve 5304, 5308, 2824 etc.. and a couple of cisco.

Yes, I installed pysnmp (2.0.9) as described in the SLES guide. I used the package nav-3.0.0-1.noarch.rpm that is located at MetaNAV download page: http://metanav.ntnu.no/moin.cgi/NAVDownload It seems to be be NAV 3.0 beta. Should I better try to compile it from source? Sorry for my late answer.

I have discovered another Problem with my Installation and I hope you can help me with it as well. When I log in using the NAV Webinterface, everything seems fine at first.

I have no idea what the reason for that message could be as I followed exactly the description located at http://metanav.ntnu.no/moin.cgi/InstallingOnSLES. When I click on Toolbox --> Edit database I get this weird stuff: Mod_python error: "PythonHandler editdb" Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/mod_python/apache.py", line 287, in HandlerDispatch log=debug) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/mod_python/apache.py", line 457, in import_module module = imp.load_module(mname, f, p, d) File "/usr/local/nav/apache/webroot/editdb/editdb.py", line 29, in ? import editTables,nav.Snmp,sys,re,copy,initBox,forgetSQL,nav.web File "/usr/local/nav/apache/webroot/editdb/initBox.py", line 29, in ? from nav.Snmp import Snmp,NameResolverException,TimeOutException ImportError: cannot import name Snmp or that: Mod_python error: "PythonHandler editdb" Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/mod_python/apache.py", line 287, in HandlerDispatch log=debug) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/mod_python/apache.py", line 457, in import_module module = imp.load_module(mname, f, p, d) File "/usr/local/nav/apache/webroot/editdb/editdb.py", line 29, in ? import editTables,nav.Snmp,sys,re,copy,initBox,forgetSQL,nav.web File "/usr/local/nav/lib/python/nav/Snmp.py", line 24, in ? from pysnmp.proto import v1, v2c ImportError: No module named proto Do you have any idea what I could have done wrong?

I added a few switches and a server as a test to see how things worked. Everything worked good until i added the server. When I added the server navcron started a process called Java, and this process took more and more memory until the computer running nav crashed. I removed the ip device from the database but then cricked displayed this error at the bottom of the cricket webpage: Config tree needs to be recompiled: Referenced file /usr/local/nav/cricket/cricket-config/servers/"IPofServer"/"IPofServer" The two questions I got then is: what is that java prosess that started the trouble and how can I prevent it from happening the next time I added a server? How do I get that Cricket error fixed? I feel more comfortable in a windows enviroment but NAV offer some good functionality that I think could be useful in our network, so I would really like to get this working. ---- mvh Jan Egil ?rtun Sauda Kommune >From roger.aas at hsh.no Thu Nov 23 11:17:31 2006 From: roger.aas at hsh.no (Roger Aas) Date: Thu Nov 23 11:17:57 2006 Subject: [Nav-users] Updated InstallingOnRHEL4 to cover NAV 3.1.1 Message-ID: <4565753B.1080102(a)hsh.no> I have the last days done some much needed editing of my installation description of NAV on CentOS and RHEL. The highlights: - Updated for NAV 3.1.1 - Tested on RHEL4 Update 4 and CentOS 4.4 - Added possibility for receiving syslog messages from equipment - Added sample firewall setup - No more vi edits, all done by cat and sed - Made clearer what site specific information needs to be entered and where Same link as before: http://metanav.ntnu.no/moin.cgi/InstallingOnRHEL4 Always nice with feedback on this document, especially if you find some errors.
