Centreon 25.10 - Host Adresse unvalid

Hello,

Since upgrade to 25.10, we are facing a weird issue on Host adress form.

While in 23.04 this field was most likely “open to any format”, it now requires a “valid IP / FQDN Format”, which is a problem actually for multiple reasons.

  • We can’t modify an existing item that is actually configured with a wrong HOSTADDRESS format, resulting to the following error : 
  • We also can’t delete an item that is with this kind of HOSTADDRESS format. It does nothing when we click on delete → Just actualizing the interface, but the host still here, and poller config doesn’t see any change.
    • Even if we restart the poller config, it doesn’t do anything (in case it was a ghost change)
  • We have many commands that uses the HOSTADDRESS value, which is not a valid IP (or FQDN) (for certain api calls for example).
    • > This would require to refactor many of our commands.
    • > We can’t deploy any new hosts that are using these commands.
    • > And we can’t really refactor because we won’t be able to change the HOSTADDRESS (cf upside)

 

Does someone else facing this kind of issue ?

Not that i know of, did you use hostnames resolved by the local /etc/hosts or something similar ?

Because yeah, sounds definitly like a bug

Hello Alexandre,

 

This hostname is a “dummy” one and refers to an ID for my API Calls, that is used by my Powershell script in this particular case.

We have several “dummy hosts” like that, that don’t directly refer to a real host, then generating custom services with different API Calls.

Meaning there is no “DNS resolution” for those hosts, only used (for some scripts) as variables in the commands that are running the script.

It was working fine when we were still in 23.04, but now in 25.10, looks like there is a “regex check” on the hostaddress to match a specific template.

Problem is that we can’t manage (update / delete / create) these hosts anymore. We are locked right now.

 

Is there a way to open a bug case ? (we are using the free Centreon version).

I would open it on Github at the same time, the source code is available so if you find where the verification is, you may as well make a PR to change it as a proposal. That’s my suggestion at least.
