Result from SNMP not valid after upgrading to 0.8.7b

Post by Cyberwizzard »

After upgrading from 0.8.6i to 0.8.7b and switching from cactid to spine, my graphs are no longer updated. I get a lot of these in my logs:

Code: Select all

WARNING: Result from SNMP not valid. Partial Result: ...
SNMP: v2: kameleon.internal, dsname: traffic_in, oid: .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.1, value: U
The OID in fact exists and returns a result.

Another thing that is troubling me is the fact that the pollers that do work, are not stored in the ./rra directory. The data is read but not stored... I am trying to find out what is going wrong but so far, no luck...

I got the poller.php script working again and pretty much all data is coming in again.

The main problem remains though: some OIDs fail to be parsed by Cacti. For now it seems that only network interfaces are not read.

Can someone help me debugging this issue? I've tried everything and I don't fancy doing a clean install and thereby wiping all our stats from the past year and a bit...

On a side note, the results seem to be a Gauge32 type, perhaps Cacti is expecting something else due to a faulty upgrade??

Followup: After checking all the other graphs, it seems that only network interfaces are affected. I tried removing the graphs and sources for one host and re-adding them but it didn't help.

Anyone? :(

This is cmd.php or spine?

This would be Spine. I also tried strace-ing the Spine daemon but because it forks I only get to see to output :(

Should I try cmd.php as poller? It was my understanding that it is considerably slower than Spine and required some external libs for SNMP?

Thanks for your time :)

Trying cmd.php would just be an option to get an idea of the root cause, not a real solution. And yes, it requires php-snmp to be installed

Yay!

Cmd.php *does* generate interface data as the networking charts start moving again. Does this mean I found a glitch in Spine or can it be some sort of configuration thing?

Let me know how I can debug this issue :)

Not a spine expert here. Please report a bug as given by http://www.cacti.net/bugs.php. You may download current spine SVN and compile just as a try
