[etch-users] recommendations on etch / nventory versions

From: Kenneth W. <hap...@gm...> - 2009-10-26 21:14:33

Anyone out there using etch and nventory together? Which versions are you
using?

I seem to be having some issues getting the nodegrouper and nodetagger
scripts working between Etch version 3.8 and nVentory 0.83. Alternativly if
anyone has any input into fixing the error below that would be just as
helpful, and appreciated too:

[root@domU-12-31-39-06-BA-33 nventory]#
/usr/bin/etch/etchserver-samples/nventory/nodegrouper localhost
/usr/bin/etch/etchserver-samples/nventory/nodegrouper:16:in `get_objects':
wrong number of arguments (4 for 5) (ArgumentError)
        from /usr/bin/etch/etchserver-samples/nventory/nodegrouper:16

I included the nventory file from client/ruby directory of the 0.83 version
in the nodegrouper and nodetagger scripts.

Thanks!

Sorry, my bad, I forgot to update the sample scripts to reflect the  
change in the nVentory API.

Fix committed to svn.  You can grab the updated scripts here:

http://etch.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/etch/trunk/etchserver-samples/nventory/

I'm working on some enhancements and bug fixes to the features that  
were added in the 3.8 release (config commands and REXML support),  
hopefully I'll get a new release out this week and it will include  
this fix as well.

Jason,
Awesome. That fixed that issue. Thanks!

I'm seeing another error "getaddrinfo: Name or service not known
(SocketError)" from http.rb, but I believe those are specific to the EC2
setup I'm running. The trouble shooting continues ;) Thanks again!

That sounds like the nventory library is failing to look up the  
hostname for the nventory server.  I think the library uses 'http://nventory/' 
  by default.

Thanks Jason! That got me on the right track to fixing it.

I'm not sure if this is the best way to fix it, but in case anyone else has
this issue on EC2... I changed line 65 in nventory.rb on my Etch host from
@server = 'http://nventory/' to @server = 'http://
ec2-X-X-X-X.compute-N.amazonaws.com/', replace with your instance's dns
entry.
