Hi,

Checkmk Version: Checkmk Enterprise Edition 2.2.0p23

I wrote a little plugin for our inventory. It’s working great but i stumbled upon an error in ~/var/log/web.log for the plugin.

2024-03-06 23:36:38,749 [40] [cmk.web 1901547] Error on declaring permissions for packaged visuals in file /omd/sites/main/local/lib/check_mk/gui/plugins/views/apc_inventory_view.py

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

It’s complaining about the import, but i just can’t find the problem looking at other examples.

From the head of the file

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- encoding: utf-8; py-indent-offset: 4 -*-

from cmk.gui.i18n import _l
from cmk.gui.views.inventory.registry import inventory_displayhints

inventory_displayhints.update({
etc.etc.

Can anyone tell me what i did wrong? :slight_smile:

Thanks and br
