The problem I found was I needed to be able to pass a custom value to a DataQuery per host. This functionality is available natively with regular Script Input Methods, but not via Script Queries. In my case I'm collecting Microsoft SQL Server Statistics. I needed to be able to pass the ODBCName for ...

Well apparently I jinxed it by posting here, in a good way. It's working now. I did go into my datatemplate and changed the dropdown for cpuidle datasource to be cpuother, saved, and then changed back to cpuidle. maybe that fixed it.

I wrote a PHP Script server file, it is returning values just fine for 2 of the 3 values, however the 3rd never gets stored in the rrd file. Here's my script file, pretty simple <?php #!/usr/bin/php -q /* do NOT run this script through a web browser */ if (!isset($_SERVER["argv"][0]) || is...

I figured it out.

the Script Server doesn't care about anything that is directly printed from within the function. It needs the values to be returned.

I've recently built a new cacti server using 8.7d. In my old version, 8.6i I had somehow configured it to not require you to login to look at the graphs. I'd like to do the same with my new install. How do you set that up? nevermind, figured it out. Guest now has a checkbox and has to be enabled.

I got the permissions for CMD.exe fixed. First you need to disable UAC, then reboot. Then take ownership of the file. Then you can set permissions. it still didn't fix the problem when running as cmd though, still waiting on 2/2 pollers. Still getting the 04/21/2009 10:29:34 AM - SPINE: Poller[0] ER...

I did install Net-SNMP. How do I stop utilizing it? Do I just break the paths on the path page? Is there an .ini setting that needs to be changed? An uninstall? Can't rename cmd.exe to copy my modified file, can't overwrite it either that I can tell. I'll work on trying to figure out how to do that....

The poller cache shows backslashes as well.

I don't understand why it is switching my slashes. In my XML file it is using forward slashes.
