Various Interface Name Errors

Hi,

We had a working installation which, after an apt upgrade (to latest stable) is now somewhat broken and I’m unable to find why.

Topology is simple: Multiple Cisco devices emitting Netflow -> nprobe instances -> ntopng
(The probes and ntopng are on the same machine)

All the errors relate to the lack of an interface name, for example:

Apr 11 12:46:45 ntopng ntopng: [Lua.cpp:76] ERROR: ntop_select_interface : expected string, got nil
Apr 11 12:46:45 ntopng ntopng: [Lua.cpp:76] ERROR: ntop_interface_name2id : expected string, got nil
Apr 11 12:46:45 ntopng ntopng: [Lua.cpp:5134] WARNING: Script failure [/usr/share/ntopng/scripts/lua/as_stats.lua][/usr/share/ntopng/scripts/lua/modules/lua_utils.lua:1686: attempt to concatenate local 'interface_name' (a nil value)]

The web interface reports this at the bottom of every page and most of the pages are unable to display data because of it:

/usr/share/ntopng/scripts/lua/if_stats.lua:72: attempt to concatenate global 'ifid' (a nil value)

Any pointers?
