That is a sign of a permission issue with cookies/php session data.

make sure the IUSR and IIS_WPG accounts have modfiy rights on the php\sessiondata and php\uploadtemp folders.

I run Cacti on Windows and had the "Invalid PHP_SELF Path" issue but the fix in the link you posted does work correctly so it is not likely to be the issue.

Permissions check out per your Install Guide

Ran filemon on the web server and can find you access denied. Heck I can't even find a spot where it tries to write the session cookie.

My php.ini file
session.save_path="f:\cacti\php\session"

I never had the session.save_path in 8.6j, and of course removing it in 8.7b does nothing. Still no error on creating a session cookie when watching filemon though.

Tymbow,
Is your cacti install an upgrade from a previous version or a fresh install?

It was an upgrade.

Basically my real and virtual Cacti paths are not the same which I why I get the error.

Just tested out a fresh install and creating a junction point does seem to fix it. That's the closest thing I can think to do with IIS that the apache users are doing.

This also fixed my login issue on the production box.

I have the same problem on a fresh 8.7b install. I hit the home page and get "Invalid PHP_SELF Path".

What do you symlink to get rid of this?

Thanks,
Bob

Thanks, Megaman's fix worked for me too.

I had this problem and found it was caused by not having cacti installed to \inetpub\wwwroot\cacti under IIS. (I had it as \inetpub\cacti, and had IIS configured to present it as a virtual directory).

Filemon showed me it was trying to open \inetpub\wwwroot\cacti, so I moved it there, and everything was fine.

Hi,
Setting doc_root = c:\inetpub\wwwroot on my php.ini seems to fix that issue.

Erwan.
