I'm trying to get more then 1 combo test to show up on the status page.
My definitions in combo.cfg:
ps0898.apps = (ps0898.excel + ps0898.word)
Win7\-hjb.apps = (Win7\-hjb.excel + Win7\-hjb.word)
Only the first shows a value in the apps column. According to the
combostatus.log file with --debug both get evaluated:
25563 2013-09-30 10:56:11 Symbolic '(ps0898.excel+ps0898.word)'
converted to '(1+1)'
25563 2013-09-30 10:56:11 Symbolic '(Win7\-hjb.excel+Win7\-hjb.word)'
converted to '(1+1)'
25563 2013-09-30 10:56:11 Adding to combo msg: status ps0898.apps green

25563 2013-09-30 10:56:11 2 status messages merged into 2 transmissions
On friday I tried the second test without the backslashes; the result
was (to be expected):
(Win7-hjb.excel+Win7-hjb.word) = (0-1+0-1) = -2
clear Win7
clear hjb.excel
clear Win7
clear hjb.word
The Win7.apps column stays purple and clicking shows me the above status
as of last friday. I stopped xymon and dropped all files under server/
with "Win7*" in the name. The status is still there.
Differences between ps0898 and Win7-hjb: ps0898 is Windows XP and has an
active bbwin client. Win7-hjb is Windows 7 and sends only the status and
data line for both tests word and excel, which are shown in the
corresponding columns.
What am I doing wrong?
