Keep getting SMS alerts even though the phone number is removed from the Alert Profile

Hi, I am getting sms alerts to a phone that I have removed from the active alert profile in NAV. I did have this number there earlier, but I removed it several days ago. The new phone numbers added in the alert profiles aren't getting any alerts, this is also the case with the e-mail address I have added. It seems like NAV is using my old alert profile to send out the alerts. Is it any way to "update" this, so that NAV uses the current phone numbers in the profile instead of the old number?

PHP/.htaccess error message
by Lars Marius Schjaerin 04 Des '08

04 Des '08

Hello, I have a fresh Install of Debian with a fresh install of NAV. (The machine briefly had the beta version, but I purged that package.) Installing went fine, but I had to run the database creation script manually for some reason. And I had to manually download and install a backport of python to meet the version requirements. I get this error in my apache2 error log when I try to access AlertProfiles : /var/www/nav/alertprofiles/.htaccess: Invalid command 'php_flag', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration Everything else seems to be running fine. I can add locations, rooms, devices and the log suggests all the devices I add are checked by ping. I have tried renaming the file, but that gives me a 403 instead. Commenting out the php_flag line in .htaccess gives what looks like the actual code instead of the page. Using php_value instead of php_flag gives the same message. Contents in the file are as follows : SetHandler none php_flag register_globals on The machine is running on : Apache/2.2.3 (Debian) mod_python/3.2.10 Python/2.4.4 NAV version : 3.4.4 Anyone got any pointers on what could be wrong? -- Lars Marius Schjærin Brednett AS

Alert profiles

I can't get NAV to send alerts when IP devices is down, neither e-mail nor sms alert. I have added G01: All alerts for the profile, I am allowed to receive SMS in my account. Gammu is also installed. What am I doing wrong? I also tried adding my own filter group with different filter alerts, but nothing worked. Regards, Lene Maria Myhre Wireless Trondheim

Can't get bulk import to work
by lene.myhre＠item.ntnu.no 21 Nov '08

21 Nov '08

Hi, I have been trying adding all my IP devices with bulk import and got "green light" on all devices. But when I tried to import, I got an error message. I then tried the same prosedure again, but this time I got "red light" on all devices, even though the list was the same. I then tried adding one of the devices manually, but I got "IP already exists in database". I can't see the new IP devices in my list. Have these new IP devices been added, but are "invisible" for me in the GUI? How do I solve this? Regards, Lene Maria Myhre Wireless Trondheim

05 Nov '08

I keep getting "Cricket Tree needs to be recompiled" when I try and run statistics. I have tried running /usr/bin/cricket-compile. It always comes back with "Couldn't apply preserved file mode to /etc/nav/cricket-config/config.db.new". I am running this on NAV 3.4.4. Any Ideas?

Adding wireless access points to IP devices
by lene.myhre＠item.ntnu.no 05 Nov '08

05 Nov '08

Hi, We are new to NAV and have a couple of questions regarding adding new IP devices. We are trying to add our Cisco 1242 and 1131 access points, and I can see that they are already added in the "Type" list. But we are using Lightweight AP's that does not have SNMP, so I do not have a RO community. How do I best add the access points then? Is it possible to use "WLAN" as device, or do I have to add it under "Other"? Also, adding IP devices, is it possible to have another name for them than the IP address? It's kind of confusing with over 100 IP-addresses for our access points... Regards, Lene Maria Myhre Wireless Trondheim
