Ntopng Possible Bug in v.6.4.250617

Prior to the upgrade to ntopng v.6.4.250617 (os-ntopng 1.3), I could add the line -i=view:all to /usr/local/etc/ntopng.conf to add a new view that aggregated traffic from all interfaces. 

Log prior to upgrade looked like this:
cat /var/db/ntopng/ntopng.log | grep view
11/Jun/2025 18:19:44 [NetworkInterface.cpp:3820] Started packet polling on interface 'view:all' [id: 6]...

That was with this version and earlier:
13/Jun/2025 18:04:39 [Ntop.cpp:553] Welcome to ntopng amd64 v.6.2.250409 (:6.2.250409)

Now since v.6.4.250617 no errors show in the log, the GUI shows that the view:all is being applied, but no view is actually made:
ntopng --interface 'igc4' --interface 'igc5' --interface 'igc1' --interface 'igc3' --interface 'igc2' --interface 'view:all' --http-port '3000' --dns-mode '1' --data-dir '/var/db/ntopng' --user 'ntopng' --pid '/var/run/ntopng/ntopng.pid' --httpdocs-dir '/usr/local/share/ntopng/httpdocs' --scripts-dir '/usr/local/share/ntopng/scripts' --callbacks-dir '/usr/local/share/ntopng/scripts/callbacks' --daemon

Here is my /usr/local/etc/ntopng.conf
-i=igc4
-i=igc5
-i=igc1
-i=igc3
-i=igc2
-i=view:all
-w=3000
-n=1
-d=/var/db/ntopng

I can see traffic properly on each individual interface (as I could before), but no longer can see the additional view, which was a very convenient ntopng feature.


Ntopng moved the view option to the pro version.  That's why view no longer works.
