NAV 3.0 RC2 is now available for download at http://metanav.ntnu.no/ . A number of small, but critical bugs were found in RC1, and have been fixed in this new release candidate. Unless critical bugs are reported in this release candidate, this will be the baseline for NAV 3.0.0.
Upgrading from beta RC1 ======================= Some OIDs have been added, and due to a fix in the OID-tester, we strongly recommend you to re-run the SQL script doc/sql/snmpoid.sql, as documented in the README file of the same directory.
CHANGES ======= Version 3.0_rc2 (released 20 July 2005)
Improvements:
* More data for the snmpoid table, please run the new snmpoid.sql to ensure your system will work after an upgrade.
* The Service Monitor's RPC plugin no longer complains loudly to stderr.
* The Messages and Report web interfaces will no longer intermittently cross-over mysteriously.
* The alert message texts have been updated to contain messages for all known alerts.
* Overlapping time periods in an alert profile will no longer cause double alerts to be sent.
* Modules that are down can now actually be found and deleted in the Device Management interface.
* The Traffic Map system and Network Explorer can now be properly configured to run without a single NAV root directory.
* Alert Profiles web pages now include the correct stylesheets, so it won't look as funny.
* Several getDeviceData-related problems were ironed out.
* The menu on Messages' maintenance list is no longer ugly.
* IP devices put on maintenance will now be taken off maintenance, instead of remaining on maintenance forever.
* Maintenance-scheduled IP devices can now be properly deleted from messages.
* Next/previous page-links in reports will now work properly even when using advanced search options. Also, advanced searching on database fields that contain underscores (like sw_ver) will now work.
* Performance improvements in the IP Device Center.

You need to copy (or symlink) the .jar files from nav/lib/java to the shared/lib tomcat directory.
That shouldn't really be necessary if you've already symlinked those jar-files to $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext/ ? We certainly didn't do this on our production server, and it still works.
I think the recommended procedure is to only put the SNMP and Postgre jars in lib/ext and leave all NAV-specific jars in nav/lib/java. It is then necessary to symlink these files into the shared/lib tomcat directory.
Of course symlinking everything into lib/ext works and is simpler :)
Should we perhaps have a tomcat install guide which mentions this?
If anything were to be put in such a guide, it would be a bit about whether or not it is necessary to restart Tomcat or delete the extracted webapp directories when the NAV webapps have been upgraded. I think you're the expert on this particular subject :)
It is probably safest to delete the directories and then restart tomcat (though a better option is to use the webadmin tool to simply redeploy the web applications).
Hello !
I've one problem I never have found a solution for, and that is using norwegian letters (??????). If I tries to use it then I get this error message :
The data you input was sent in a non-recognisible encoding. Make sure your browser uses automatic character encoding or set it to 'utf_8'.
The browser is using UNICODE (UTF-8) and the database it created using with this command : "createdb --encoding UTF-8"
Anybody got a clue ?

No, I've never heard anyone complain about this. Is this an error message the web interface reports when you submit forms? What browser are you using, on which platform?
The point is, every page generated by the NAV web interface should tell the browser that its encoding is UTF-8, and the expected behaviour from the browser should be to submit form data using the same encoding. There might be a problem, however, if your Apache server reports in its headers that all pages are ISO-8859-1, while the HTML produced by NAV says its UTF-8 - I'm not exactly clear on how browsers handle this type of conflict.
If you are using Mozilla/Firefox, you can grab the response headers from your NAV server by using the livehttpheaders plugin. See what the Content-Type header is set to.

Hello !
NAV automatically generates Cricket configuration for the IP Devices registered in NAV (through editdb), through the makecricketconfig.pl script.
We have one odd problem with Cricket, as you have decribe the Cricket config should be generated by the script "makecricketconfig.pl". when I look at our giga-router-interfaces on our routers (6509) then I see only "No description available" in the Description field. Looking at giga-switch-ports on the same router (6509), then the description field is correct.

Hello. Here are the types I had to add to the type table in EditDB when filling in some equipment on my NAV3 rc2 test installation : http://folk.uio.no/asbjorp/nav3/new_types.txt
Or a pg_dump of my type table (cleaned out norwegian words etc) : http://folk.uio.no/asbjorp/nav3/type.sql
And allso, in the NAV-links section on the front-page : the "About NAV / Other NAVs" points to a dead url (http://metanav.ntnu.no/moin.cgi/NAVlinks/) Not very important, but I thought I should mention it #:)
