HTML Export Path

[TFC]

Hi,
I try to use "HTML Export Path" settings.
I fill the blanks as

Code: Select all

/www/htdocs/cacti_83/export_images

Then I point my browser the same directory. But it is empty.
What must I do as additional action to see graph in this directory?
What should I expect then?
Thanks...
Note that,

Code: Select all

/www/htdocs/cacti_83/

my cacti directory.
And I use RH 7.3 , cacti 8.3a

Graphs are exported every five minutes when cmd.php runs, so you will not instantly see files here. You also must make sure the permissions on your 'export_images' directory allows cmd.php to create new files here. I would be willing to bet that this a permissions issue.

I use cactid. Have you same idea for cactid?

I have the same problem with cactid on 0.84
what I do is to add a file with these comands from cmd.php in it

Code: Select all

include(dirname(__FILE__) . "/include/config.php");                                                 
include_once($config["base_path"] . "/lib/rrd.php");                                                
include_once($config["base_path"] . "/lib/functions.php");                                          
include_once($config["base_path"] . "/lib/graph_export.php");                                       
                                                                                                    
/* dump static images/html file if user wants it */                                                 
graph_export(); 

and run it from cron

Thanks for your post!
Exactly what I was looking for...
Wonder why this function isn't part of cactid?

Can you post the contents of the entire file? What type of file is it? Is it php? How do you invoke it?

[moonman]

just call it somethin like export.php and run it with

Code: Select all

php export.php

bty
tnx for the question it remind me i forgot to recreate the file after upgrading to 0.85a

OK, I put <b>exactly</b> what you have above into a file called export.php and issued <i>php export.php</i> and it spits back the following:

Code: Select all

Content-type: text/html
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.2

include(dirname(__FILE__) . "/include/config.php");
include_once($config["base_path"] . "/lib/rrd.php");
include_once($config["base_path"] . "/lib/functions.php");
include_once($config["base_path"] . "/lib/graph_export.php");

/* dump static images/html file if user wants it */
graph_export();

Here is the entire contents of my export.php file (a total of 7 lines):

Code: Select all

include(dirname(__FILE__) . "/include/config.php");
include_once($config["base_path"] . "/lib/rrd.php");
include_once($config["base_path"] . "/lib/functions.php");
include_once($config["base_path"] . "/lib/graph_export.php");

/* dump static images/html file if user wants it */
graph_export();

Still no graphs get exported. Basically, it just echo's the contents of export.php.

Did you find out how it works?
It would be really important for me!

Thanks,
Julia.
