Web GUI Serverstatus not right

[yogg1]

Hi

I have the following Setup:
Master Server (Ubuntu 8.04 32bit zcs-6.0.3_GA_1915.UBUNTU8.20091118105052)
Replica Server (Ubuntu 8.04 64bit zcs-6.0.3_GA_1915.UBUNTU8_64.20091118125312)

Everything runs fine. Only the serverstatus in the Web GUI shows me the wrong status of the master server.

zmcontrol status
Host Masterserver
	antispam                Running
	antivirus               Running
	ldap                    Running
	logger                  Running
	mailbox                 Running
	mta                     Running
	snmp                    Running
	spell                   Running
	stats                   Running

Attached two screen shots from the web gui (Masterserver and Replicaserver)

I hope someone can help me.

I have been having the same issue for quite some time now. I know a bug was submitted about this (Bug 42053 – Services status: all servers reported as not running/error in web console)
but it was closed. Can we reopen this bug???!

You can also see my forum posts about this issue here: Server Status
As of yet, nobody has been able to come up with a fix.

Hi,
check to see if syslog is running. if it is, is the server listening on port 514/udp? check your firewall settings too.

To get it to listen for remote syslog events you need to edit /etc/sysconfig/syslog and modify the line for SYSLOGD_OPTIONS so it looks something like:

SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-r -m 0"

-r sets it to listen to remote events. The script for syslog sets up everything else, just leaves this minor detail out.

Then restart the logger service (or perhaps the whole zimbra service) and you should be all set.

That absolutely does NOT fix the problem, but thanks for trying.

Did you try reinitializing logger ?

Ok. Sorry to hear that.

It DID fix it for me.

Perhaps this can help: Monitoring Zimbra Servers - Zimbra :: Wiki

Thanks for all the replies.

1: Ubuntu does not have /etc/sysconfig/syslog
For Ubuntu this helps Syslog Remote logging under Ubuntu [Documentation update]

netstat -an gives me now (on Master and Recpica Server):

udp        0      0 0.0.0.0:514             0.0.0.0:*

2: King0770-Notes - Zimbra :: Wiki
I don't have "/opt/zimbra/libexec/zmloggerinit" is this command only in oder zimbra packages available?

3: Monitoring Zimbra Servers - Zimbra :: Wiki
as root user "/opt/zimbra/bin/zmsyslogsetup"

Nothing of this seems to fix my problem.

But now the strange thing:
An hour after this i had to do something on the Web GUI and the first thing that popped up was the server status where everything is green now

I don't know what of the above commands has done the magic but now it works. So if someone have the same problems make the same way (on all machines) restart all machines wait a time and maybe it also works ^^

Thanks to all

Strange, but my syslog is not hanging on port 514 ...

netstat -anp | grep 514

But I decided to experiment. And edited rsyslog config:

vim /etc/default/rsyslog

# RSYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-c3"
RSYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-r -m 0"

/etc/init.d/rsyslog restart

While the statistics work. Let's see what will happen in 24 hours.


P.S. Who can give some notation here these parameters?

RSYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-r -m 0"

Unfortunately, the problem still remains ....
This morning I discovered that the statistics do not appear again.
