Zabbix 5.0 LTS has been released

@carsten

Hi Carsten

It’s sufficient to install from repo…
The database stuff was needed due to an older / migrated system above…

It’s ok to install from repo but to get the most recent version (testing) use these instructions.

Greetings,

Does anyone use Telegram alerts in Zabbix?
In the previous version if I managed to configure the urgent notifications, but with this update they no longer work.
When I download the yaml template from Telegram’s Zabbix webhook and when I import it, it tells me:
Unsupported import file extension “yaml”.

I even tried to write it (I don’t think well) it gives me errors when testing:

Someone who has this working, who can provide (export) their template would appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.

I use the builtin template of zabbix 5.0 no need to add a new one. I just followed

https://www.zabbix.com/integrations/telegram

Thank you @stephdl

I used that same guide last year and it worked for me, but today trying to make it work I forgot to export it and deleted it.

Now when I try to recreate it, I get more errors than before; I have checked and I don’t see any apparent typing errors.

Could you (at some point) export your template (1) (without your token) and provide it?

(1) From Media Type

no telegram template :-?

I deleted it from Media Types, in Templates there is none.

Saludos Enrique!

I’ve uploaded the file “zbx_mediatypes_telegram.xml” to my nextcloud for you (In your folder…)

Exported from Zabbix 5.0.8 in XML…

Thank you @Andy_Wismer

Just to add a note that you commented to me::

"For all of us who can’t use the latest 5.2,…
The newer Version uses yaml, which 5.0 can’t use… "

Sorry, but if I upgrade, the upgrade procedure keeps the configuration?? I hope so.

Yes, it does keep the config.

Looks pretty good, but the Graphs menu, has changed, You need to configure the Screens is a confortable use, but not natural for first time.

Maybe i am wrong but…

Why i should install zabbix-agent2 for use and/or update nethserver-zabbix?

Nethserver-zabbix-agent is intended to ease monitoring of a Nethserver.
Nethserver-zabbix requires nethserver-zabbix-agent now. This way the modules are easier to maintain.
zabbix-agent2 is a new agent providing for example a service check. It’s required but disabled by default.
See wiki entry.

same at me.

Please update with the needed repos enabled. With the new version the repos should be enabled by default.

yum update --enablerepo=zabbix,mrmarkuz

Sorry @mrmarkuzzabbix-agent is a dependancy of zabbix. Ok. So there’s already zabbix-agent installed on my system.
If i want i can install zabbix2-agent. If I don’t want, i shouldn’t have to install zabbix-agent2. Which is dependancy of nethserver-zabbix, not zabbix.

Or now zabbix2-agent is mandatory for zabbix?
Because if you decided that zabbix-agent2 is mandatory (as new agent), i don’t like it but i can relate, and I’m hoping to remove zabbix-agent

zabbix-agent2 and zabbix-agent

Maybe you can import and sign these rpms yourself @mrmarkuz to your repo, like this you will avoid tears and cries from others :smiley:
