Hi!

Congratulations - first release, very cool :D

Here's what I noticed using "notifications" in director:

• I'm not able to set "Time Period"; the drop down remains empty (but I created and deployed a timeperiod template and a timeperiod object with ranges)
• Adding a notification object type "apply rule" throws stacktrace, there's no "assign_type" in "icinga_notification_assignment"

Added it this way: ALTER TABLE icinga_notification_assignment ADD assign_type ENUM ('assign', 'ignore') NOT NULL DEFAULT 'assign';

Is there documentation available for notifications, creating NotificationCommands (with env= ...)?

Sorry if my questions are too stupid :)

Regards,
Marianne

Congratulations - first release, very cool :D

Honestly, wasn't my decision. But thank you anyway!

Sorry if my questions are too stupid :)

I guess you're perfectly aware of the fact that they're not :p Neither the explicit ones nor those between the lines ;)

Checked on my fresh install, table is already there and database schema is already at 92 rather than 91.

However no files are being written for any of the notifications and there seems to be no form for icinga_notification_assignment.

I must be missing something

Pulled latest config this morning 16/04. Stacktrace error gone but don't understand how notifications can be linked to hosts / services

Any way we could get a hotfix on this? I've had great success using director but not being able to setup notifications is kind of killer.

Should be fixed in current master, otherwise please let me know.

Getting this error when I go to the assign tab in the notification apply rule:

Fatal error: Class 'Icinga\Module\Director\Objects\IcingaNotificationAssignment' not found in /usr/share/icingaweb2/modules/director/library/Director/Web/Form/DirectorObjectForm.php on line 38

Just checked that directory and it is missing that file "IcingaNotificationAssignment"

Also, it doesn't appear to be applying the notifications to the host (I assume it's due to this missing file..)

Please try the latest master, this tab should no longer exist.

With today's git clone, I'm now able to save and deploy time periods, users, user groups, notifications and notification apply rules (it seems this "apply to services/ hosts"- thing did the trick).
My config is now syntactically correct.

However - notifications still don't work since I'm not able to get a reasonable notification command - how to get mail-host-notification.sh into director?

Will continue... :-)

Great to hear that, thank you!

Wait for #11849 or adjust the script to accept command line parameters. There is no ENV support in Director right now. mail-*-notification.sh is one of the shittiest notification scripts anyway. This should IMHO be seen as an example and not as the "default" script used by everyone and his dog. But I know, reality is different. Most people treat it as the god-given solely way of sending mails with Icinga :D

Thomas

"I replaced it with a small shell script" (https://www.spiller.me/icinga2-director-notifications/)
=> works :)
