Cacti 0.8.7d Released

Post by rony »

We are pleased to announce the release of Cacti 0.8.7d!

This release includes quite a few bug fixes that were reported in Cacti 0.8.7c.

- Fixed many syntax issues that were causing functionality problems
- Repaired issue that would cause MySQL to failure
- Resolved issues with ping on Mac OSX
- Fixed problems with structured rra path conversion script

Many of you maybe asking why a new release so close to 0.8.7c release.

We determined that the amount of fixed precluded us from creating
patches and a release was needed to make it easy on the community.

This one is really worrying - it implies that someone checked in code without even running it once...
Weathermap 0.98a is out! & QuickTree 1.0. Superlinks is over there now (and built-in to Cacti 1.x).
Some Other Cacti tweaks, including strip-graphs, icons and snmp/netflow stuff.
(Let me know if you have UK DevOps or Network Ops opportunities, too!)

It doesn't imply, is suggests that is true....

I'm not happy with it, but to be honest, one of the issues was caused by me as well. A simple php syntax check did not find it, it was only exposed when attempting to use it... (I broke the cdef.php) :oops:

Ok, I'm getting errors in my apache log:

ERROR: Could not parse line 'GPRINT::AVERAGE:------>%8.2lf %s\n'

and some graphs are showing up as thumbnails but not when you click on the full graph.

Attached are screen shots.

I was having the same problem with 86b, and was never able to resolve it. It only happens on my temperature graphs for some reason.

Ok... I found the problem... don't know if it's a "bug" though...


When the item is type gprint and data source of "none" it will not plot, but it will thumbnail.

I changed the data source to match the graph lines and it started plotting.

Is it safe to go straight from 0.8.7b to 0.8.7d guys? Or will I still need to bounce to 0.8.7c first?

I got the same. The error is in the new PIA - top_graph_header.php.

I did a compare with PIA 2.3 for this particular file, and they seem to be identical apart from some img src tags.

I ended up doing a swap of this file for the one in PIA 2.3, which seems to work fine.

I expect that this file will need to be replaced in the new 2.4 zip. Not sure if what I did breaks anything, but my install works fine.

Hope this is of some use.

Please post the EXACT error message from apache log. Then, please visit the graph at graph management and post DEBUG output
