#4647 Bandwidth Monitoring

[M.T.R]

Hi,

unable to activate the Bandwidth Monitoring in Webmin.
When clicking on SETUP NOW we get error message:
Unsupported file or mode >iptables-save 2>/dev/null | at WebminCore::/usr/share/webmin/web-lib-funcs.pl line 3163

We are on Debian Linux 8.

Thanks for advice

Cheers

If you go to the Linux Firewall module, does it detect IPtables and show your current rules?

[M.T.R]

hi,

sorry for the delay, was a bit busy. <bg></bg>

yes, i can see my rules in the linux firewall displaying the content of iptables.up.rules.

Can you add the line error_stack=1 to /etc/webmin/config and then re-try setting up bandwidth monitoring, and post the full error message? That will show me where exactly in the code the problem occurred.

[M.T.R]

ok done,

here is the message:

Unsupported file or mode >iptables-save 2>/dev/null | at WebminCore::/usr/share/webmin/web-lib-funcs.pl line 3163

btw
there was a new type of log file created even after the error message in LOG FILES: /var/log/bandwidth.

cheers

[Jamie Cameron]

Is anything being logged to /var/log/bandwidth, or is it just empty?

[M.T.R]

when i tried to use this option,
the first time there was something logged,
but as i remember no errors.

afterwards it kept always empty.

have deleted the log already.

cheers

Ok, I see the cause of this now - it will be fixed in the next Webmin release.

[M.T.R]

thanks
