NetXMS Support Forum

Hello Teams,

I am just facing the same issues so how could i solve it.

Best regards,

Can you show a screenshot to understand what exactly is in which language?

Hi cold,

Thanks for the report. This has been fixed in commit 4e26775.

The dbinit.sh script now auto-detects the database driver from the DBDriver setting in netxmsd.conf instead of hardcoding pgsql. If you set DBDriver=mariadb (or mysql) in your netxmsd.conf, the initialization will work automatically.

For the second issue — the missing dbinit_mariadb.sql — this is expected behavior. NetXMS uses "mysql" as the umbrella driver name for both MySQL and MariaDB SQL templates. So you should use DBDriver=mariadb in your config (the driver itself handles the connection correctly), but the schema initialization template is shared. With this fix, nxdbmgr init auto-selects the correct template, so you don't need to worry about it.

As a bonus, the fix also adds support for TimescaleDB initialization via the NETXMS_PG_TYPE environment variable (set NETXMS_PG_TYPE=tsdb on the init service).

The fix will be included in the next Docker image release (already in :latest).

I'm encountering a localization inconsistency in the NetXMS Web UI (Docker-based deployment).

Currently, even after explicitly selecting English in the user settings, several parts of the interface (menus and specific strings) continue to be displayed in Portuguese (Brazil), which is my browser's default locale.

It seems that the "Auto-Detect" logic—which is great as a default for new sessions—is still taking precedence over the manually selected language in the user profile.

The expected behavior should be:

• Default: Auto-detect based on Browser Locale (Accept-Language header).
• Override: If a user manually selects a language (e.g., English), this choice must take absolute priority, and no fallback to the browser locale should occur for any UI element.

What I've tried so far:

• Forcefully selecting "English" in settings.
• Logging off (user) and restarting the "netxms-web" container.
• Testing in Incognito mode (where it sometimes works, confirming the browser locale influence).

Environment:

• NetXMS Version: 6.1.1
• Platform: Docker / Web UI
• Client Browser: Chrome/Edge (Locale: pt-BR)

Thanks for your help!

I am deploying NetXMS via Docker using the official deployment-example/compose.yaml from netxms/docker (commit 55e823c), but replacing the built-in PostgreSQL container with an existing MariaDB instance.

During the database initialization phase, I encountered two related issues:

1. The server/files/dbinit.sh script has "pgsql" strictly hardcoded (nxdbmgr init pgsql), which forces PostgreSQL initialization regardless of the DBDriver configured in /etc/netxmsd.conf or environment variables.

2. If we manually override /dbinit.sh on init container to initialize MariaDB (nxdbmgr init mariadb), the process fails because nxdbmgr looks for a specific dbinit_mariadb.sql file in a directory that does not exist in the Docker image.

Environment:

- NetXMS Version: 6.1.1 (Build 6.1-452-gc20a8a4247)
- Deployment: Docker (using official deployment-example/compose.yaml)
- Database: MariaDB 10.11

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Setup the deployment using the example compose.yml file, pointing /etc/netxmsd.conf to a MariaDB database (DBDriver = mariadb.ddr).
2. Override /dbinit.sh (entrypoint) on init container via bind mount to execute nxdbmgr init mariadb.
3. Start the init container.

Error Log (when using mariadb driver for init):

NetXMS Database Manager Version 6.1.1 Build 6.1-452-gc20a8a4247
Initializing database...
ERROR: Cannot load SQL command file /usr/share/netxms/sql/dbinit_mariadb.sql
Database initialization failed
Unable to determine database syntax
Note: I verified inside the container that the directory /usr/share/netxms does not exist on the NetXMS Server Docker image.

If I change the /etc/netxmsd.conf  to use mysql instead (nxdbmgr init mysql), the database initializes perfectly, even though I am using a MariaDB container:

NetXMS Database Manager Version 6.1.1 Build 6.1-452-gc20a8a4247
Initializing database...

Database initialized successfully
Suggested Fixes:

1. Dynamic Driver Selection: Update /dbinit.sh to dynamically read the database driver from a Docker environment variable (e.g., NETXMS_DB_DRIVER) or directly from /etc/netxmsd.conf, falling back to pgsql only if nothing is set. Changing nxdbmgr init pgsql to simply nxdbmgr init allows the utility to dynamically deduce the driver from /etc/netxmsd.conf, as intended by the documentation.
2. Template Mapping: Either include the dbinit_mariadb.sql template in the image build process or alias the mariadb initialization argument to use the mysql SQL template internally, since the schema structure is identical.

Hello,
I would like to contribute with NetXMS translation to PT-BR (Portuguese-Brazil).

What are the overall specs of the server? What are CPU and memory for a few days?

I've created a ticket for this: https://github.com/netxms/netxms/issues/3195

This should be fixed in the current version
