Grafana Dashboard Problems

Hi everyone.

Suddenly we have some problems with all our dashboards in Grafana.

All dashboards when we try to open, even with the admin account, we receive the error:

Application error. Account is blocked for 30 seconds.

“status:500
statusText:“Internal Server Error”
data:Object
error:“Internal Server Error”
message:“Application error. Account is blocked for 3 seconds.”
config:Object
url:“api/datasources/1/resources/zabbix-api”
method:“POST”
headers:Object
hideFromInspector:false
data:Object
retry:0
message:“Application error. Account is blocked for 3 seconds.””

Some of Dashboards we also get this error:

db query error: Error 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near ‘’ at line 25

Anyone has a clue here?

Thanks.

Also, grafana-server I think thats ok:

Those are the plugins that I have:

installed plugins:
agenty-flowcharting-panel @ 0.9.1
alexanderzobnin-zabbix-app @ 4.2.4
fzakaria-simple-annotations-datasource @ 1.0.1
grafana-clock-panel @ 1.2.0
grafana-csv-plugin @ 2.0.0
grafana-piechart-panel @ 1.6.2
grafana-polystat-panel @ 1.2.7
grafana-worldmap-panel @ 0.2.1
novalabs-annotations-panel @ 0.0.2
ryantxu-ajax-panel @ 0.1.0
vonage-status-panel @ 1.0.11
Please restart Grafana after installing plugins. Refer to Grafana documentation for instructions if necessary.

Another problem that I found, I dont know if that is related to the issue, but check the output of the grafana-server service:

[root@SERVER init.d]# ./grafana-server status
grafana-server dead but pid file exists

And I can access normally in web, as I said before.

Thanks!

do you have a few grafana vizs with different mariadb and zabbix data sources?

  1. what user do you have for your zabbix connection?
  2. what user do you have for your Mariadb connection?

looks like a few issues you need to touch base with your db admin and zabbix admin
Are you cloud or on prem?

yosiasz,

hi.

No, I only have Zabbix Default Data Source.

1 - Admin
2 - We use MySQL, and its Admin user.

We are on prem.

yosiasz,

I’ve checked here and for Zabbix we use MySQL, but we have MariaDB process running too.

mysql 1966 12.8 58.7 9835860 5294780 ? Sl Mar25 5934:12 /usr/libexec/mysqld --basedir=/usr --datadir=/mysql/mysql_db/ --plugin-dir=/usr/lib64/mysql/plugin --log-error=/var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log --pid-file=/var/run/mariadb/mariadb.pid --socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
root 6808 0.0 0.0 112836 980 pts/0 S+ 15:51 0:00 grep --color=auto mariadb

so this above must correspond to MySQL ^
How are you connecting to this mysql server? username and password?

So did you recently upgrade grafana?

Yosiasz,

I recently have not updated the Grafana :frowning:

if you search for that error: Application error. Account is blocked for 3 seconds.” it seems related to zabbix and not grafana. Something must have changed either in the query for zabbix or something else.

Is anything here are you saying?

Ok, understood.

But I dont have a clue how to begin the troubleshoot :frowning:

Just reporting, I was able to resolve the problem.

The problem was the account that connects with Zabbix API.

Now everything is fine.
