After upgrading the config master and the Windows agent from 2.3.11 to 2.4, the config sync isn't working any more. The following error is logged on the agent:

[2015-11-16 19:35:25 W. Europe Standard Time] information/ApiListener: Updating configuration file: C:\Program Files (x86)\ICINGA2\var/lib/icinga2/api/zones/global-templates//_etc/commands/agent-local-cmd.conf
[2015-11-16 19:35:25 W. Europe Standard Time] warning/JsonRpcConnection: Error while processing message for identity 'mon3.3it.loc'
Error: Function call 'mkdir' failed with error code 2, 'No such file or
 directory'

On the config master the file is located at the following path:

zones.d/global-templates/commands/agent-local-cmd.conf

I think the error has it's source in the new directoy "_etc" in the api-path.

Despite this bug I want to congratulate all of you for the new release - the idea of the api is great, thank you for your ongoing fantastic work!

Addendum: After creating the directory "C:\Program Files (x86)\ICINGA2\var\lib\icinga2\api\zones\global-templates\_etc" manually the sync work's fine.

This is occuring for me as well. Windows only.

Note: thought it was linux as well but it just moved folders to zones/_etc/zone name

Does the same occur with a path including multiple directory levels? E.g. global-templates/test/1/2/3/templates.conf

(if so, I'd guess that MkDirP on Windows is a possible candidate)

If I create sub folders and sync them to the master they get created on all children. Only folder that has to be made is the _etc folder inside the zone folder

for example /var/lib/icinga2/api/zones/global-templates/_etc/example/my_config.conf
Only _etc has to be made manually

Yes, the problem is the same. I added your example with the following result:

[2015-11-30 09:03:38 W. Europe Standard Time] information/ApiListener: Updating configuration file: C:\Program Files (x86)\ICINGA2\var/lib/icinga2/api/zones/global-templates//_etc/test/1/2/3/templates.conf

Same problem here (v2.4.1).

it only happens when I have multiple subdirectories.

not working:

global-templates\_etc\network.d\someconfig.conf

working:

global-templates\_etc\someconfig.conf

if i create the folder _etc and reload again its working. So the bug is here: the script can create only one subfolder at a time. If you create "_etc" before reloading the icinga daemon you can have another subfolder and so on.

Just to mention: if you reload the configuration after you have deleted some folders on the master, old folders aren't deleted on the remote client and you will have some empty folders in _etc/*

Edit: another problem is, that these files can't be created too: C:\Program Files (x86)\ICINGA2\var\lib\icinga2\api\packages\_api\somehostname-1455205941-1\conf.d\downtimes.

Updated Master and Remote Client to 2.4.3. I wiped c:\....\var\lib\icinga2\api\zones\* to test it.

The error is the same, it start syncing and it stops with the error on the first folder at the 2. level after _etc.

ERROR:

Error: Function call 'mkdir' for file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\ICINGA2\var\lib\ic
inga2\api\zones\global-templates\\_etc\vmware.d\apply_rules.d' failed with error
