[Xymon] History page does not match events and hist files

[Robert Baker]

Hello,

I'm a recent migrant from BB to Xymon and things have been fairly smooth. Recently, I've noticed that the history page no longer is showing entries correctly. Or really, at all for that matter. I'd copied history from BB over to Xymon in the correct directory and adjusted permissions as needed. Xymon seems to have no issue with reading and writing to the files.

As an example,

This is from the recent events on the main page

The server is running on CentOS Linux release 7.7.1908 (Core) and I'm currently using Xymon 4.3.30-1.el7.terabithia, although I'm open to trying a recompile from source directly if this may be a bug with that particular RPM release.

A screenshot example can be found on https://puu.sh/FCrDQ.png as I'm unsure whether the mailing list accepts attachments. I've also posted on the sourceforge discussion board as well. https://sourceforge.net/p/xymon/discussion/435278/thread/3479b2301a/?limit=25#446d

If there are any tips or permission issues that could be the underlying cause, please advise.
