What should I do? Thanks in advance!

Can’t immediately see any issue from the screenshot, (except for https:// as a procedure url you could try delete that bit)

Did you try to re-create manually?

Can you create any other alert rules?

I just created it in the demo https://demo.librenms.org/alert-rules/ from collection and manually but all works fine as expected.

yep, i’ve try to copy exactly same as default alert. and it showing “failed to process rule”.
any error log I can search for this error?

Thanks!

So you can’t create any alert rules?

You can check logs/librenms.log to see if it has any errors.

yep. I cannot create any alert rules.

seems like no error log in my libtenms.log.

please advice

any advice?

Maybe try a different browser?

Is this a new install?

What happens if you map the alert to the 1 device you have, same error ?

Can you edit alert templates successfully ?

Can you show output

ls -l /opt/librenms/includes/html/modal/new_alert_rule.inc.php

Is this a new install?
yep, i’ve migrated to new server. its same result.

What happens if you map the alert to the 1 device you have, same error ?
same error

Can you edit alert templates successfully ?
same error

Can you show output

please advice

find some interesting field in /opt/librenms/includes/html/modal/new_alert_rule.inc.php

is this a bug?

I wouldn’t say that is related to your problem, since you can’t edit alert templates it’s failing somewhere else down the line.

Did you try in a different web browser ?

try add /debug=true to the end of your URL and try again, do you see any more info after creating the rule?

Also check developer javascript console.

try re-run

chown -R librenms:librenms /opt/librenms
setfacl -d -m g::rwx /opt/librenms/rrd /opt/librenms/logs /opt/librenms/bootstrap/cache/ /opt/librenms/storage/
setfacl -R -m g::rwx /opt/librenms/rrd /opt/librenms/logs /opt/librenms/bootstrap/cache/ /opt/librenms/storage/

show output of git status in /opt/librenms

check apache logs also for any errors.

Hi! I found the problem!

The problem is false positive from mod_security, It think that SQL injection. haha. som I whitelist my IP.
thanks for your help!

I was experiencing a similar issue “Failed to process template” error when making any changes to alerts or templates via the WebUI. The folks over in Discord helped me fix it like this:

sudo su librenms
cd /opt/librenms
./scripts/composer_wrapper.php install && ./scripts/composer_wrapper.php install --no-dev

Hi

Can you help me ? I have same problem. What was the solution exactly ?
