  • 1.  QRadar Tuning App on AppHost

    Posted Thu September 12, 2019 08:36 AM
    Hello Everyone,

    I am trying to get Tunnig app to work. When I try to click Investigate button I get error


    I tried manual rules import by using generate-rules-file.sh. This script failed with error "Failed to copy file to the correct location." After some investigation it seems that file failed to copy to container and it is an error from calling Tuning App API.

    curl --silent --show-error -X POST -w '\n' "localhost:$APP_PORT_NUM/api/rules_file" -H "accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data" -F "rules_file=@$temp/$XML_FILE_NAME;type=text/xml"
    Anyone have similar problem or an idea what to try.

    Hi Djordje,

    Seems you are using 7.3.1 where rule file upload is required, and since it failed you are getting the first error message. Did you try manually uploading the rules file to the app in configuration page (see instructions below from config page)? If that works we can see further why the script to copy the file doesn't work - if you are interested in setting up auto-updates.

    ... I just realized there is App Host in the message title, so then you are using 7.3.2? In case of 7.3.2 there is no rule file upload supported, it shouldn't be needed. In the CRE report page, did you see the chart generated and picked from one of the active rules, or did you select a rule from the "add additional rule"? Any details you have would help analyze the problem, you can also send me a message directly.

    I received answer via PM:

    So based on the screenshot you sent me it seems the app didn't match the rule to the event - it is not related to App Host problem, but the way we are doing the mapping in this version. We should really be disabling Investigate option in this case when Rule Name is blank, with the explanation. We improved the way we map CRE events to rules that generated them in the upcoming version, most likely you will be able to see the rules mapped to the event in this case.

    At the end of day, I reinstalled my test Qradar. After this, everything works :).

    Best regards,
    Djordje

    That's great. If you start editing rules that already generated events, specifically change the event name, you may run into the same problem. The next app version will be more robust that way.
