Trying with \\n didnt change service status details output and now output in Mine Map is as folllows:

I think it can be related bug. Look at last comment. https://github.com/naemon/naemon-core/issues/144

I thought maybe using api (instead of direct invoking of submit_check_result) could workaround that, but no luck. I tried it like this:

curl -k -H "X-Thruk-Auth-Key: $THRUK_API_KEY_MYKEY" \
            -d "cmd=process_service_check_result" \
            -d "host=my_test_host" \
            -d "service=my_test_service" \
            -d "plugin_output=red\nthis" \
            -d "plugin_state=2" \
          'https://example.org/thruk/r/cmd'

In the status.cgi page (the observe page where hosts with their services are shown) in the plugin output I see the text "red\nthis". But I noticed that in the extinfo.cgi (the dedicated page for that service), the text in Status Information is shown correctly with several lines.

I think I could close this issue. Switching from '\n' to html tag br solved the problem.

[Ashark]

For <br> to work, in cgi.cfg you need to set escape_html_tags = 0.

It can be used as solution. But still the \n variant is broken. I am not sure if that should be fixed from the thruk or in naemon bug from your link.

@sni, how do you think? Close it or not?

[tomaszdubiel18]

@sni, please come back to this issue. After seeing closed issue for Naemon: https://github.com/naemon/naemon-core/issues/387 I updated it, checked whether something had changed, but still - there is wrong multiline output in Service Status Details.

I remind "Expected behavior In 2.42 the output was underlined and the full formatted output was available on click"
