Poller.php MIBS

[colobolo]

Hi,

I noticed that when issueing php C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\www.mydomain.com\cacti\poller.php it would not work.


I noticed (through this forum) that i have some issues with MIBS

when i start C:\PHP\extras\mibs>
php C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\www.mydomain.com\cacti\poller.php

i receive this response;

I saw some suggestions to add the MIBDIR to the system variable. So i added;

Add a new system variable called MIBDIRS. Its value should be C:\PHP\Extras\mibs

Under the System variables groupbox, click on New.
In the Variable name field, type MIBDIRS.
In the Variable value field, type C:\PHP\extras\mibs (have the mibs dir there)
Click OK and close the dialog boxes.

Uncomment/modify the following lines in C:\PHP\php.ini.
register_argc_argv = On
safe_mode = Off
cgi.force_redirect = 0

Then i restarted
net stop iisadmin
net start w3svc

after that i still receive the same response with:
php C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\www.mydomain.com\cacti\poller.php

Question. should i restarts windows 2003 to for the Variable MIBDIRS C:\PHP\extras\mibs to take effect ?


when i test with

Ps.
For the rest cacti is configured oke.
My devices are online:

Description** Graphs Data Sources Status Hostname Current (ms) Average (ms) Availability
My Windows localhost 2 2 Up localhost 0.16 0.15 100
Switch Hp 11 10 Up server-ip 1.42 1.3 100

I can create graphs an they are shown in cacti (without data ofcourse).

Hi,

A reboot of windows did the trick to use the new variable for MIBS.

Then i tried;

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator> snmptranslate -IR -Td IF-MIB::linkDown


No log handling enabled - turning on stderr logging

Cannot find module (NOTIFICATION-LOG-MIB): At line 1 in (none)
Cannot find module (NET-SNMP-AGENT-MIB): At line 1 in (none)
Cannot find module (DISMAN-EVENT-MIB): At line 1 in (none)

IF-MIB::linkDown

DESCRIPTION "A linkDown trap signifies that the SNMP entity, acting in
an agent role, has detected that the ifOperStatus object for

of ifOperStatus."
::= { iso(1) org(3) dod(6) internet(1) snmpV2(6) snmpModules(3) snmpMIB(1) snmpM
IBObjects(1) snmpTraps(5) 3 }

Should i have installed net-snmp with windows extensions ?

I hoped that the problem would be gone but i still get errors.


C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>snmpwalk -v 1 -c public 127.0.0.1 .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3

Cannot find module (NOTIFICATION-LOG-MIB): At line 1 in (none)
Cannot find module (NET-SNMP-AGENT-MIB): At line 1 in (none)
Cannot find module (DISMAN-EVENT-MIB): At line 1 in (none)

Any suggestions ?


I noticed that these files (which could not be loaded) where located in C:\net-snmp\share\snmp\mibs
So i copied them over to the c:\php\extras\mibs dir so they could be found.

And yes they are now loaded correctly.

C:\net-snmp\bin>snmptranslate -IR -Td IF-MIB::linkDown
IF-MIB::linkDown
linkDown NOTIFICATION-TYPE
-- FROM IF-MIB
OBJECTS { ifIndex, ifAdminStatus, ifOperStatus }

::= { iso(1) org(3) dod(6) internet(1) snmpV2(6) snmpModules(3) snmpMIB(1) snmpM
IBObjects(1) snmpTraps(5) 3 }


Still when i use:

C:\net-snmp\bin>snmpwalk -v 2c -c public 127.0.0.1 .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3
Timeout: No Response from 127.0.0.1

I get a timeout response.. where do i go from here ?

When is use.

C:\net-snmp\bin>php.exe C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\www.mydomain.com\cacti\poller.php


Then a window opens (cactid) with just a cursor top left and the windows closes without any info.

where do i go from here ? Do i need to configure net-snmp ? i reinstalled it with the windows extentions in the same dir.

1) the net-snmp snmp agent is not needed and not recommended. their tools are fine though.

2) did you forget to properly configure the windows snmp service? create a public community and allowed hosts? Maybe a firewall blocking snmp traffic?

3) If you haven't already, you should upgrade to cacti 0.8.7a

4) Go into cacti's settings-> poller and set both the cron and poller options to 5 min. click save.

5) With cacti 0.8.7, you should be using spine, not cactid.

6) Cacti doesn't use MIB files anyways, so those errors can actually be ignored; only OIDs are used.

Hi,

When you get this Errors:
Cannot find module (NOTIFICATION-LOG-MIB): At line 1 in (none)
Cannot find module (NET-SNMP-AGENT-MIB): At line 1 in (none)
Cannot find module (DISMAN-EVENT-MIB): At line 1 in (none)

then remind to cacti - installation manual, where you have to set the Environment Variable: MIBDIRS !!!

This one is used for Net-SNMP and so you have to copy the MIB-Files from the Net-SNMP Folder\share\snmp\mibs
to the PHP folder.

best regards
