added reporting modules, but portal shows no updated info...

[Dan Bibb]

I added all of the modules via pasting the output from http://example.com/index.php?/install/dump_modules/config

It appears that no add'l data is being reported to the server, and come to think of it, even when it was only reporting on the 2 default modules, munkireport and disk_report, I never got any disk info to show up.

I turned on debugging, and this is the output at the end of running sudo /usr/local/munki/managedsoftwareupdate -vvv

Finishing...

Done.

I've cleared the cache on my main browser but also accessed the portal via another machine just to be sure. 

Do I need to do anything other than add the modules to the config.php file? If I've missed it in the documentation, I apologize. 

furthermore, is there a way to run munkireport other than running managedsoftwareupdate?

Any advice is appreciated, thank you.

If you enable modules, you'll need to install them on your clients, either by creating a package or manually as instructed here:

You can run munkireport manually by invoking /usr/local/munki/preflight and /usr/local/munki/postflight as root

Sorry, just to be clear, all machines are currently reporting in, and the "munkireport" module shows me client info. However nearly every other module is blank.

Are you saying when a module is added to config.php on my server, it also has to be installed on each client?

That's right, modules are largely dependant on clientside scripts. All modules are already on the server. Adding them to config.php is only there to tell the client installer what to install.

Well, when you put it that way, it makes sense. I'm still new to this stuff, thank you for all the info.

[Dan Bibb]

one more thing, would it be safe to assume that I need to have Munki remove the previous version of munkireport from the clients, then install the updated package?

I am assuming Munki will only check for version number and skip over the installation otherwise?

[A.E. van Bochoven]

No need to remove the previous version. MR will happliy install over itself (it will even remove client scripts for modules that you did not enable)
