FYI....

Need to support web basic authentication...

Need to support alternate URL formats with port designations.

Example: https://cacti.mydomain.com:447/

Neither of these work and I get no error message on the above example URL.

Also, why does the user need all those permissions?

The user should and only need graph view permissions. I see NO reason for update datasource and update graphs, that is only a recipe for disaster. Let me know what your issues are and I can give you alternate solutions.

Thanks, I've added both of them (basic authentication, alternate urls) to my todo list. I will implement them soon.

iCacti downloads device information from Devices list and graph information from the Graph management list of console. That's why the user should have the specified permissions. Is it possible to catch the same info without these rights?

Got it, works for me now. Had one initial error about connecting to the instance and one crash where it exited completely during the same session, but its been stable since.
Thanks for the quick updates.

"There was an error while connecting the instance" on both my instances, one of which used to work with 1.1

One does. That one was the one that gave no graphs (but did have host lists and graph titles) in 1.1.

One doesn't. That worked fully before.

Hi Vbali,

I'm not sure if the iPhone is capable of using webservices, but I'm working on an update to my nmidWebService plugin ( which ich GPL ). As this one is accessing the cacti data via the DB i can implemnt those 2 functions.

Look here for info on what I already implemented:
http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=35682

The updated webservice plugin isn't published yet, but I can give you a current working version if you like ...

I feel like a proud father like many of the dev's do relative to these types of things.

Not sure what I am doing wrong. Even finally upgraded to 0.8.7e. Installed app just fine. Entered my URL, username and password. Press the instance to log on and the little icon spins, stops spinning and I get nothing. No error, blank screen. Is there something in cacti to enable or is it just using the regular browsing features?

Here is what comes into the apache log file when I select the instance:

Hey, I've been looking for an iPhone-cacti solution for a while now, and I have even been tempted to create something similar, but obviously you beat me to it.

I only notice that it's only available for iPhone OS 3.1.2.
Are you using any 3.1.2 specific features?
The reason why I'm asking is because I'm still on 3.0 (yup tethering is too precious for me).
If you're not using any specific features from 3.1.2, could you make the app available for 3.0 as well?
