Interestingly, very few users complained about the missing IUSR_COMPUTERNAME NTFS security on the last 2 releases... makes me wonder about them some times....

--1.92 2009-04-28
Bug: Fixed NTFS applying permissions for IUSR_COMPUTERNAME account
Bug: Removed unneeded entries from global.php for PIA 2.x plugins
Feature: Include SSL Net-SNMP so SNMPv3 works
Feature: Enabled PHP error log for debugging (php_errors.txt)
Feature: Added more plugins
--ReportIt
--Nagios Plugin for Cacti (NPC)
--Manage

Any chance I could get an older build of this installer ,say for Cacti 0.8.7b? The current version breaks CDEF in CactiWMI and I'd like to go back to the same version of Cacti that my Linux box is using.

Thanks

IMO, you should be using the latest cacti release regardless and have them fix whatever CDEF issues you're talking about... you have a pm.

Hello all,


I have ran into a issue maybe someone can help out.

I am running Win 2003 server R2 with IIS6. This is a fresh install with the installer package cacti-0.8.7d-1.92x86.exe The main problem I am having is that it seems that cacti is missing from iis, but it is in the correct directory under C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\cacti The permissions look fine as well..

I solved the problem :)

First - there are some strange modifications in C:\\Your_path\cacti\include\global.php (last lines):

Code: Select all

$plugins = array();
//$plugins[] = 'weathermap';
$plugins[] = 'update';
$plugins[] = 'tools';
//$plugins[] = 'syslog';
//$plugins[] = 'ssl';
$plugins[] = 'settings';
//$plugins[] = 'routerconfigs';
//$plugins[] = 'ntop';
//$plugins[] = 'monitor';
//$plugins[] = 'mactrack';
//$plugins[] = 'loginmod';
$plugins[] = 'hostinfo';
//$plugins[] = 'flowview';
//$plugins[] = 'docs';
//$plugins[] = 'discovery';
I think this was made by installer (maybe) because i don't use any of this plugins (maybe they are default here, or just for author private use, i don't know). I remove this and all my pages looking good now :)

Second was my failure. Bad source, hosts, templates etc. No big deal :) Anyway preconfigured Win Xp template works great for me, but only processes amount and traffic. Virtual memory or disk usage is broken. I'm new maybe i done something wrong.

Imported templates for Win (protocols traffic, disk usage, processes) works great. Now i must fight with main task - draytek vigor 3600 ipdslam.

mariusz: Please attach pictures to the forum. Attach c:\install.log to the forum as an attachment. Did you tell the installer to install the plugins? Did you previously have cacti, php, mysql, or apache installed?

MrGutts: What do you mean missing if the files are there? What are your symptoms ?

Interesting, because install.log says otherwise -- it installed all the plugins. I just tested the installer on a clean windows xp box and it did not do that. I wonder why...

Instead of using the picture hosting service... in the future, attach them here.

1) did you follow the post-install instuctions?
2) What is the error when you visit the cacti website?
3) What web server did you use?

I ran the all-in-one installer. After the installation, the PHP poller showed several errors when it ran, the errors are related to missing SNMP MIB modules ("cannot find MIB module 'SNMP....'"). I noticed the C:\PHP\extras\MIBS directory is empty. I had to copy the MIB files from another installation of Cacti and the poller began to run ok without any errors. Other than that the installler is flawless. I was up and running in an hour after the installation. I did five or six manual installations over the last few years and really like this installer, it's a real time saver!!!

Hmm, the php 5.2.9 installer is somewhat 'broken' and places the MIB files in INSTDIR\usr\mibs. My installer is suppose to copy those mib files then to your INSTDIR\php\extras\mibs\. Wonder why that didn't happen...

Glad you like the installer otherwise ;)
