BIG-IP Report

New version out that fixes syntax iRules syntax highlighting and revamps the direct hash links. There's also a lot of quality work in this one (kudos TimRiker !):
https://loadbalancing.se/downloads/bigipreport-v5.7.0.zip

Big thanks to TimRiker for his relentless improvements and patience with unit tests and integration tests. This one was all him. 🙂

Also, I have created new docker builds with vulnerability fixes starting from v5.7.0 (base image has been updated) and updated some node dependencies for security reasons.

Thank you Patrik_Jonsson !

Hi Patrik,

We recently moved our bigip-report to a doker since our old windows server is going to be end of support.

unfortunately, with the same setup, same users, i always got a 401 F5 Authorization failed.

I've tried a lot of think suggested in the topics and on : 

https://loadbalancing.se/bigipreport-rest/#Authentication_failed_see_inner_exception

https://loadbalancing.se/2021/03/28/installing-troubleshooting-and-running-bigip-ingress-controller/#Authentication_issues

I also check F5 possible bugs ID but still nothing.

From the docker itself, curl is working perfectly : I can get the token and the list of pools.

Also tried to moved the user from Guest access all partitions to full admin : nothing

Any idea what could cause the issue ? 

Best regards, 

Hi Mathieu

Since you've tried using curl from within the container I reckon you've ruled out network issues at least.
One thing you could try is to try to re-create the config file (start with a new one, don't re-use the old) if you have not done so already.

Windows and linux has different line breaks and I've also had the pleasure of experiencing garbage characters more than once.

Which version of BigIPReport are you using and which version of TMOS are you running?

Kind regards,
Patrik

Hi Mathieu
Although I was hoping for a fun troubleshooting session over discord I'm glad that it worked out for you!

Always fun to hear from users of the project, be it over mail, message or comments. ❤️

Kind regards, 
Patrik

Hi Patrik,

Me as well, I'm a bit disapointed that was such a simple human mistakes ! I could do better lol

Anyway thank you for your support 😉

Regards,

New version out with minor patches:
https://loadbalancing.se/downloads/bigipreport-v5.7.12.zip

Also, more importantly:
The docker images now will run as non-root. About time!

To update to the new containers, use the v5.7.13 tag when deploying using Kubernetes or Docker-compose.

Kind regards,
Patrik

Due to a platform corruption during the 2019 migration I have worked with   team to move his original legacy codeshare to this new record (same URL).

The legacy codeshare is temporarily available at https://devcentral.f5.com/s/articles/bigip-report-old

The negative repercussions of this change are:

• the nearly 1000 historical comments appear that they must will have to remain on the legacy record.
• the numerous *likes* stayed with the legacy record (smash that like at the top right of this page!! if you like it)
• anyone bookmarking that legacy record will not be notified of changes made here (click that bookmark icon)

The positive repercussions of this are:

• Patrik can now make edits to the entry - making updates more likely and timely. (a deep in the weeds corruption I couldn't ferret out)
• You all only have to deal with one set of comments here - making conversation easier. (another part of the corruption)
• And, looking on the bright side of a negative, I don't have to find out (yet) what happens when the comment counter rolls over to 1000.😩

Thank you for your patience and persistence with Patrik's awesome contribution and thank you for your dedication to our community.

New release v5.5.9. Well done Tim!

I've updated the Kubernetes containers with the new code and also triggered the :latest tag for you Cowboys who likes to use that. :)
