Hello everybody,

We are running cacti 0.8.7b on a Solaris 10 for several days now. A few days ago the crontab registered a very odd problem :
/usr/local/rrdtool-1.2.19/bin/rrdtool: syntax error at line 1: `(' unexpected
cat: cannot open /proc/meminfo
cat: cannot open /proc/meminfo

we are running :
Cacti Version 0.8.7b
Cacti OS unix
SNMP Version net-snmp
RRDTool Version RRDTool 1.2.x
Hosts 3
Graphs 4
Data Sources SNMP Query: 4
Total: 4

thanks in advance,
Fristi,

It has worked for several days, is there a cacti version specially for Solaris ?

Is there such a file on Solaris? If you are using net-snmp, was it recently updated? I would suspect this problem is either there, or some other script attempting to open the proc file.

Here's a guess:

Code: Select all

grep -i proc /var/www/html/cacti/scripts

That's because by default Cacti enables a host script called linux_memory.pl which does not work on Solaris. You will have to write a specific one or disable that graph.
