On the only system I can reboot easily at this time I have now successfully installed the SNMP plugin. I needed to remove the plugin from the "failed plugins tab", goto /boot/config/plugins and manually delete the snmp directory and all it's contents, reboot and then install the plugin through the app store as normal. This completed without issue and even gave a good output during the log. I have not included it as it will not tell you anything. However, on Thor, I have not been able to reboot, but removed the failed plugin, deleted the /boot/config/plugins/snmp directory and then retried installation. I received the following log: plugin: installing: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubedzero/unraid-snmp/main/snmp.plg plugin: downloading https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubedzero/unraid-snmp/main/snmp.plg plugin: downloading: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubedzero/unraid-snmp/main/snmp.plg ... done plugin: downloading: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubedzero/unraid-snmp/main/packages/perl-5.32.0-x86_64-1.txz ... done +============================================================================== | Skipping package perl-5.32.0-x86_64-1 (already installed) +============================================================================== plugin: downloading: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubedzero/unraid-snmp/main/packages/libnl-1.1.4-x86_64-3.txz ... done +============================================================================== | Skipping package libnl-1.1.4-x86_64-3 (already installed) +============================================================================== plugin: downloading: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubedzero/unraid-snmp/main/packages/net-snmp-5.9-x86_64-1.txz ... done +============================================================================== | Skipping package net-snmp-5.9-x86_64-1 (already installed) +============================================================================== plugin: downloading: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubedzero/unraid-snmp/main/packages/unraid-snmp-2021.05.21-x86_64-1.txz ... done +============================================================================== | Skipping package unraid-snmp-2021.05.21-x86_64-1 (already installed) +============================================================================== +============================================================================== | Testing SNMP by listing mounts, /boot should be present +============================================================================== snmpwalk -v 2c localhost -c public hrFSMountPoint snmpwalk failureCouldn't find /boot mount point.

If the DONE button did not appear, then you will need to click the red X in the top right corner I will get a chance to reboot Thor in the next few hours and will report back once I have tested it again. I have now been able to reboot Thor and it also worked. Deleting the /boot/config/plugins/snmp folder seems to be the key. Once it downloads EVERYTHING again it seems to work. I have a third server to try but see no reason why I should not have success there also. Thanks for the help Same issue here i reboot and poof, gone.. I gather from this, delete snmp folder, reinstall, issue is fixed? Quote Link to comment

If anyone's able to provide reproduction steps from a clean install of the latest 6.10 RC, let me know and I will investigate. Otherwise, it has been very difficult to evaluate what's going on. I had no issues on a clean install and wasn't able to reproduce, and SimonF also mentioned not being able to reproduce as of 6.10-RC3. Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 The only place it's going to fail to install would be in this section: echo "" echo "+==============================================================================" echo "| Testing SNMP by listing mounts, /boot should be present" echo "+==============================================================================" echo "" printf "snmpwalk -v 2c localhost -c public hrFSMountPoint\n" results=$(snmpwalk -v 2c localhost -c public hrFSMountPoint 2>&1) || printf "snmpwalk failure" if [[ "$results" =~ "/boot" ]] then echo "SNMP appears to be working. Output:" echo "$results" else echo "Couldn't find /boot mount point. SNMP output:" echo "$results" exit 1 fi and that is because of the exit 1 My surmise is that for those users where it fails is because the network is not up and initialized yet, so localhost doesn't actually exist. A plugin cannot make the assumption that the network actually exists or is initialized at plugin installation time, because it really depends upon the hardware, networking gear etc. For those users who have problems with this a reinstall, the simple way to determine if it's because of networking being down is to simply delete all the .txz's from /boot/config/plugins/snmp but ensure the folder and the .plg still exists in /config/plugins. On a reboot if I'm right it'll fail to download the .txz's Quote Link to comment

Squid Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Like I said, deleting the txz's is the test for why your snmpwalk command fails for those users with the issues. Hard for me to try and replicate since my network is up and running at plugin install. Maybe 127.0.0.1 since it doesn't require /etc/hosts to be populated yet (if that is what the issue actually is) Quote Link to comment

Happy to look again once back from hols next week. But it would be good for some feeback on use cases that are failing. Quote Link to comment
Dro Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 For me the issue is not that it won’t install. I have zero issues installing it. It’s just that when I reboot the server the SNMP app is no longer present. I know this because zabbix throws an alert about “no snmp data collection” I go to check and sure enough snmp is missing. I reinstall it, everything comes right back up and I’m good to go. If I reboot again, same issue. Rinse, repeat. I’m getting no errors on anything that I’m aware of. I’m on the latest RC Im glad to do any kind of testing or log gathering. Let me know what kind of information is needed. Thanks Quote Link to comment
BigJuanKer Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 (edited) On my systems, upon reboot, I would find the plugin moved to the "plugin error" section, both in the UI and /config folders on the flash drive. A few days ago I rebuilt the flash on my main storage array. I hadn't thought to test but seeing notifications about this thread prompted me. This was a complete clean RC4 install with only the license key used from the old install. All drives etc have been wiped. Other than removing an NVidia GPU (and associated drivers), nothing much has changed about the hardware config. In the last hour I installed SNMP on that server and rebooted, it was there and functioning after reboot. I then added back VLANs and rebooted again, it was there and functioning afterwards. I do not yet have any containers or VMs running on this system and will update if anything I install causes the issue to appear. I have yet to test this on a server that I haven't rebuilt. I will soon but my other systems are in production and can not be rebooted at the moment. I would post diagnostics but A) there's no point from the working server and B) I want to make sure that the other server still has the issue!

kubed_zero Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 All right folks, I just updated to 6.10 on my existing install (no Docker or any fancy stuff) and SNMP installed after reboot without any issue. I'll have to give a vanilla install + reboot a shot on a spare flash drive, but I suspect that will yield the same no-issue result. I'll report back if I see anything otherwise. In the meantime, please let me know if reproduction steps are available on a fresh install for this SNMP not installing after reboot issue. Thanks!

I just performed this step. Deleted the .txz, rebooted, the .txz did NOT comeback.. This is on 6.10 rc3 now.. Latest update... Only way the .txz is coming back is if I go into apps, search for SNMP, Install.. Then it shows up again and my SNMP works.. Quote Link to comment

mattie112 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Just to confirm: I just updated my 6.9 to 6.10 a few days ago. No problems at all. Even tried rebooting a couple of times -> works fine. 1 Quote Link to comment

I suspect it has something to do with your network configuration messing up the self-test at plugin install time, but I'm not positive. Perhaps it would be helpful to fully delete the files associated with SNMP on the boot drive? - the /boot/config/plugins/snmp folder, which contains an snmp.conf if defined, as well as the .txz files - the /boot/config/plugins/snmp.plg file Quote Link to comment
irishjd Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Unable to install SNMP package. The first time I installed it, it worked fine until I rebooted. Now it shows in the pluggins error tab. I tried to uninstall it and reinstall it, but now it skips all the package downloads saying they are already installed and then it it ends with this: +============================================================================== | Testing SNMP by listing mounts, /boot should be present +============================================================================== snmpwalk -v 2c localhost -c public hrFSMountPoint snmpwalk failureCouldn't find /boot mount point.

The installer runs through the download and setup, then fails at the snmpwalk, and then UnRAID thinks it isn't installed even though the files are installed in the /boot/config/plugins directory. My guess, in conjunction with your Docker logs, is that somehow the localhost address isn't configured/accessible. There's some discussion earlier on in the thread, though I don't think we ever collectively got reproduction steps to isolate whether or not this was the case. The thinking with this SNMP install script is that localhost should be available since Unraid would just be pinging itself, and then that /boot exists on all Unraid installations and should be good to baseline. If either one of those fails to be true, then the installation script fails. That said, SNMP might have actually been installed, and perhaps these tests aren't passing for some reason. I suspect that Docker networking might be fiddling with localhost, but don't use Docker myself so I've been unable to reproduce. I'd say you have two options here: - Try to figure out if localhost is working, or if SNMP is working at all. Mess with Docker networking, install SNMP manually, and just generally deep-dive on your system - Remove the validation lines from your local copy of the PLG file, which on next install would just skip over the validation and treat it as a successful install. You could strip it all out, or just remove the "exit 1" line https://github.com/kubedzero/unraid-snmp/blob/main/snmp.plg#L195 Quote Link to comment
irishjd Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Thanks for the comments. I'm going to think about this over a beer or two (Sam Adams Octoberfest is in the stores!), and then try again tomorrow. Quote Link to comment
cjhammel Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 It looks like the install script only checks with public as the rocommunity string. I found that if public is not the rocommunity string snmpwalk fails and the plugin fails the check. After 2 reboots the SNMP plugin uninstalls. If you have the rocommunity string as public then it will survive the reboot. Quote Link to comment
