Cacti

I hate to necro-post, but this is the first entry in Google when searching for this topic, so I figure this is the best place to post my patch. It would seem that Cacti 0.8.8 does have this patched, but the patch was committed in 2008 and we still don't have this fixed. Fortunately I'm versed enoug...

R.

1.4.5.

Though after posting this I decided to stop staring at it. When I came back the updates had started working. So - 24 hours of outage, and then - *poof!* The car will always stop misbehaving when you go to the mechanic.

I've migrated from Centos 5.x to Centos 6.2. Everything seems to be working fine except for rrd file updates. I'm at a loss. The old system is still happily updating its own rrd file, and if I pull them over to the new system then the graphs are drawn appropriately. On the new system, however, I get...

I've noticed that since I began using Cacti (f, gb1 and gb2) my PHP FastCGI processes are occasionally hanging. I made some configuration changes to PHP and have been unable to reproduce the problem. It seems as though the PHP management of worker processes was getting fubar and leaving behind lots...

I've noticed that since I began using Cacti (f, gb1 and gb2) my PHP FastCGI processes are occasionally hanging. They appear to be stuck on a poll() or a read() and just ... well ... sit there. My web server eventually times out the request and throws an error to the browser, the FastCGI engine logs ...

I'm using Cacti 0.8.7f and am seeing this error. It comes from a copy/paste bug in utilities.php. On line 246 you'll find this: if (ereg("^RRDtool 1\.4", $out_array[0])) { $rrdtool_version = "rrd-1.3.x"; }else if (ereg("^RRDtool 1\.3\.", $out_array[0])) { $rrdtool_versi...

Got it. Thanks!

I notice that the script examples seem to want to output only one "slice" of data (I can't of what else to call it). Will Cacti react badly if it is passed many lines of output? In my CSV file I have data that looks like: 1,03,00,00,001,120,00,02,000,00,254,008,000,029 C,00,43,14,092,028,0...

Aha! Looks like this may be what I need:

Thanks

I apologize if I characterized the situation incorrectly. What you describe is exactly my understanding. Is there a HowTo or some other document available that clearly lays out feeding CSV data in and getting graphs out? I'm perfectly willing to do the engineering necessary to massage the data into ...

Hello all - I apologize in advance for bringing this subject up again. Searching shows me that this has come up several times, but each time the answer has been a link to the main docs site and a node (and HowTo) that is, evidently, no longer representational of what it was when the link was passed ...
