0.8.7d + PIA 2.4 "upgrade" process patch errors

[ambre]

Is the PA 2.4 current with the latest patches? If not, its pre-patched files should be updated so they are for those who can't use a patching utility.

I Have do :

mysql -uxxxx -p xxxi < pa.sql

and the latest patch was for the version of cacti 0.8.7b.

I do after:
patch -p1 -N -F3 --dry-run < cacti-plugin-0.8.7d-PA-v2.4.diff

Yea, I simply overwrite the files. If you have hacked Cacti yourselves to add new features, you need to be submitting Mantis Feature requests. Otherwise, overwriting should work fine.

Even if I patch files without modifying them emerge me errors.

Unfortunately even that does not work for plugin use. Why is this not in the standard build of Cacti in the first place? It seems pretty stupid to plugin a plugin system. If he wants to increase use and modularity it should be in the base.

That's planned for the next release. Keep in mind, we do this in our SPARE time. So, no flaming appreciated..

Sorry to be dense, but I am not clear following this tread as to the full complete solution for getting rid of these error messages in my syslogs:ttpd2-prefork: PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant OPER_MODE_NATIVE - assumed 'OPER_MODE_NATIVE' in /san/www/htdocs/cacti/include/top_graph_header.php on line 9

Am I to just rerun the PIA patch, or edit the .jre file, or edit the diff file and then rerun the patch?

[gandalf]

Take the last three "defines" from new global_constants.php an put it into yours to cope with that error

I just updated, and afterwards I am getting a 401 error (unauthorized) from cacti. I updated the global.php file to point to the correct url and restarted the webserver (windows), with no sucess . . .

any advice?
