Title Fix broken "Start livestatus proxy" global setting after update from CRE to CEE
Date Oct 9, 2019
Checkmk Edition Checkmk Enterprise (CEE)
Checkmk Version 1.6.0p5 2.0.0i1
Level Trivial Change
Class Bug Fix
Compatibility Compatible - no manual interaction needed

The global setting "Start livestatus proxy" is used to enable the livestatus proxy daemon in Checkmk sites. It is a "omd config" setting which can also be set using the Checkmk GUI.

Previous 1.6 versions did not correctly initialize new OMD configuration settings after "omd update". When updating from CRE to CEE the new configuration option CONFIG_LIVEPROXYD='on' should be added to etc/omd/site.conf, because this file needs to hold the current effective config options for all available OMD settings. The missing update of this file resulted in a "KeyError ('site_liveproxyd')" exception in the GUI when trying to edit this setting.
