check_snmp_mem.pl Icinga2 configuration broken

Question

I can successfully run

check_snmp_mem.pl -v -H kvm.lala.bo -l bravo -x th3r4m1N+ -X j4bAdeHu5 -w 50,70 -c 80,90

but configuring "snmp-memory" check in Icinga2 is not working. Here's what I have in the config file for kvm.lala.by:

check_command = "snmp-memory"
host_name  = "kvm.lala.bo"
vars.snmp_v3 = "true"
vars.snmp_warn = "50,70"
vars.snmp_crit = "80,90"
vars.snmp_perf = "true"
vars.snmp_login = "bravo"
vars.snmp_password = "th3r4m1N+
vars.snmp_v3_use_privpass = "true"
vars.snmp_privpass = "j4bAdeHu5"

Icingaweb2 keeps printing

Can't mix snmp v1, 2c, 3 protocols! Usage: /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_snmp_mem.pl [-v] -H -C [-2]

The remote host I'm trying to monitor is not made reference to anywhere but in /etc/icinga2/conf.d/lala.conf. — mr.zog, Mar 19 '17 at 18:23

Not using the plugin, but I guess the problem is snmp_community having a default value. Please try setting it to false.

That's a good idea. – mr.zog Mar 21 '17 at 22:52
Actually this directive (snmp_community = "false") seems to have been ignored. I still see the same error. – mr.zog Mar 28 '17 at 01:50
Perhaps `snmp_community = ""` will work. – mr.zog Mar 28 '17 at 02:04

`false` would be a literal, when you define it as string/text, it will be the value of the community... – lazyfrosch Mar 29 '17 at 11:44
I tried `snmp_community = false` and that failed as well. – mr.zog Apr 01 '17 at 22:57
"false" is the default when snmp v3 is specified, according to the docs. – mr.zog May 02 '17 at 21:41
