Re: Debugging email notifications in version 19.1.0-1

I understood that value of “true” for 'org.opennms.core.utils.debug’ to be the default as it was commented out in javamail-configuration.properties
but I tried uncommenting to actually explicitly set it prior to posting.

I had a mail admin confirm that nothing is being sent to the mta at port 25 when I enter the wrong password into the gui.
And as you see from my telnet, if something had been sent, it would make it to my inbox.

Yeah, that's odd.

Try adding 'org.opennms.core.utils.debug=true' in javamail-configuration.properties and see if you can get better info out of notifd.log?  if you stop your local mta and listen on port 25 with netcat or similar do you see any attempt by OpenNMS to connect to port 127.0.0.1:25<http://127.0.0.1:25>?

Hi Dino,

Using the “Search” feature under Status->Events, I used the “Exact Event UEI:”
field and entered:     uei.opennms.org/internal/authentication/failure<http://uei.opennms.org/internal/authentication/failure>

and get 10 events that do look like my attempts at using the wrong PW. Here is an example:

[cid:[email protected]]

As for the javamail and mail transport agent, Michael and I went through those earlier in the thread, but happy to try anything further you can suggest. Sadly the DEBUG level of logging in notifd doesn’t create anything in the notifd.log file. If we could figure out why that doesn’t behave, I am fairly certain it would point us straight to the actual issue?

Thanks you for your time as well,
Pail

This simple test verifies unauthenticated email sending on the VM on which the onms server runs:

Hi,

I would start by verifying the event is actually fired (Can you find it in Status -> Events?), and that it matches the filter for the notification ( '(IPADDR IPLIKE *.*.*.*)' by default).  Does the notification show up in Status -> Notifications?  If those check out, i would suspect your javamail config and/or your local mail transport agent.

Michael,

The addition is correctly reflected in the gui, but no email sent when I generate the event with the wrong PW.
What steps are available to debug this further?

Thanks again,
Paul

Maybe we should focus on the Failed Authentication not working, since that one is a not one I created?

Hi Paul,

about enabling debugging for notifications: I really can’t remember I was ever using this. I set up notifications about 10 years ago and since then always copied the working config ;-)

I didn’t find any obvious error in your config, but the filter rule might be the problem.

If you don’t see notifications in the list it probably won’t be the email part that is failing – I assume your rule doesn’t match. I would


-       Start without this rule

-       If notifications are generated look out it the mails are coming

-       Maybe the filter roule would be better using something like

      <rule>(catincstaleNFS)</rule>
assuming that staleNFS is a category


Michael
