Hello,
Before 2.0 this worked for me. But now after the Updates it doesn’t work anymore automatically with Cron Jobs.
I put the vm_parent.py in the $OMD_ROOT/local/bin and the mkp in $OMD_ROOT/local/lib/python.
Always when run the Cron Job, it give me this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “(vm_parent.py path”, line 10, in
import checkmkapi
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘checkmkapi’
You also need to update the check_mk_api MKP.
I have already the version 3.4, may I need to change some configuration here?
Or what command do I need to enter in the Cronjob.
Currently I have:
python /omd/sites/(my-site)/local/bin/vm_parent.py -s (Monitoring link) -u automation -p (key)
The current version for checkmk 2.1 is available here: Checkmk Exchange
You also need the Python3 version of the vm_parent.py script which is available here: check_mk_extensions/helper at cmk2.2 · HeinleinSupport/check_mk_extensions · GitHub
Where do I need to store them?
You can download and install the helper MKP. It contains vm_parent.py.
Still the same…
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “($OMD_ROOT)/local/bin/vm_parent.py”, line 10, in
import checkmkapi
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘checkmkapi’
Does $OMD_ROOT/local/bin/vm_parent.py start with #!/usr/bin/env python3?
Yes.
There is the error. You cannot start this script with Python 2 any more. Replace python with python3 or just omit it as the script itself has the correct hashbang and should be executable.
hm, I tried both, still the same message.
Is there any other command to execute it as cron job?
do you start the script as root or as the site user?
i start the script as root.
If I run it as root I get the same error. Try it as site user.
This is due to the latest change in the API. Now an eTag is required to activate changes. I have not incorporated that change into the code of the API wrapper yet.
okay, still thanks for everything!
