browniebraun,

This is a wonderful add-on for Cacti. I've found the reports to be immensely helpful in understanding the massive amounts of data that my Cacti server gathers. Utilizing the php-bindings made my report generation much faster too. Cheers to you.

My only question revolves around the scheduled reporting. Whenever I attempt to launch the scheduled reporting for my Daily reports from the CLI:

Code: Select all

php /usr/local/cacti/plugins/reportit/runtime.php -d
I get a Segmentation Fault, and it locks my reports by setting an isactive bit in the mySQL database. I can run the reports fine through the web interface though. Any hints?

Report IT

Post by exy123 »

Firstly thanks for a great plugin everyone.

Quick question :

My reporting works great for Lines on Routers but I am unablke to create A report Template for certain templates like the allot templates , when i want to create a report template for them , they are not availible under the list of data templates.

Why is this ?

exy123,
Did you check to see if the template was unlocked, and has at least one measurand? That is something that I missed the first time around.

The main function that handles the calculation process is the same in both cases. But imo it could depend on a bug in RRDtool or an incorrect PHP binding (more probable). If you're using a RPM-package try another one or try to compile it manually. Reinhard reported the same issue in combination with a RPM package before he went on vacation.

Not yet! :cry:
But it would be great if some of the reportit users would have some time to publish one of their templates. This would also make it easier for the beginners until an interface for the import and export of report templates will have been defined.

yes definetly :-) I am a bit confused about the functions and variables - or let's say in general I don't really know how it works. Right now I do it with try and error, but a good doku would save much time ...

thanks for the plugin anyhow - maybe I could satisfy my manager with this :-)

Take a look this posting and try to rebuild my example. After that it should be a little bit clearer. http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?p=96605&highlight=#96605.
And this example should also explain the use of variables ... http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?p=102967&highlight=#102967

problem creating

Post by luckyksc »

I am running window and using mysql version 5.0.37 and I am having a hard time creating a new report for both verion 3.2 and 4.2 of report it. When I click create, it just refresh and create the table reportit_rrdlist_0 and that's it. I can create the template fine, unlock it and use it for creating the report but it fail at the create button when doing this.

Thanks,
luckyksc

Please send me a private message that contains the configuration of your MySQL Server and PHP interpreter as well. I need something to compare.
