An unexpected error happened. Zabbix plugin

Hello everyone

I am trying to add a data source through the Zabbix plugin, but at the moment of opening the parameters of the data source, I get the error “An unexpected error happened”

Before I wrote here, I went through forums and similar topics, but they talked about the incompatibility of the plugin and Grafana versions. According to the documentation and in Grafana itself, it says that the versions converge:

  • Grafana v.10.0.0
  • Zabbix plugin 4.6.1

I tried to reinstall the plugin via the web interface, manually transferred the zip archive of the plugin, installed an older version of the plugin, and also tried to register:

 environment:
      - GF_INSTALL_PLUGINS=https://github.com/grafana/grafana-zabbix/releases/download/v4.6.1/alexanderzobnin-zabbix-app-4.6.1.darwin_amd64.zip;alexanderzobnin-zabbix-app

but it did not help.

P.S. In my case, grafana is running through a docker container. The paths were written in volumes before me

I’ve been trying to deal with this problem for quite a long time and have reached a dead end. What can you recommend?

Hey @vadimfilippov04 welcome to the foruns,

It’s not really a problem with the Zabbix plug-in, it’s a general problem that the Grafana frontend is without access to the filesystem.

I would try to review the permissions between the host system and the container system, since the “paths were written in volumes before” there’s a big chance that the owners’s id of the directories between the host and the container are wrong.

Hope it helps.
