Issues

There is a current issue with the caching of the googlemaps plugin of Zenoss. This is due to recent changes google made to the Google Maps program. For a work around do the following:

  • 1. Log in or switch to the zenoss user.
  • 2. Edit the $ZENHOME/Products/ZenModel/DataRoot.py file and comment(#) the "self.geocache = cache".
vi $ZENHOME/Products/ZenModel/DataRoot.py
        cache = extractPostContent(REQUEST)
#self.geocache = cache
        return True
  • 3. Restart Zenoss.
# $ZENHOME/bin/zenoss stop
# $ZENHOME/bin/zenoss start

Notes: It is possible to temporarily fix this issue/prove you are actually suffering for a geocache issue by doing the following:

When you browse back to your google map in zenoss now it should appear as normal, but only for a short period of time. But if it did work then you know your dealing with a geocache issue and not something new.
