Hi all

System is Tinysofa Classic server

I've install net-snmp ok and cacti-0.8.6 is installed ok

but i'm not so sure about installing rrdtool

It seems to be in my system, but the folder is rrdtool-1.0.49 under /usr/local

/usr/bin/rrdtool
/usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49/bin/rrdtool
/usr/src/rrdtool-1.0.49/src/rrdtool

I think i made a stuff up, which is the correct rrdtool to install and how can i remove the one thats in the system

make uninstall did not work

any ideas please

I got make uninstall to work i think.

Any way this is what is left on the system

/usr/bin/rrdtool
files are rrdcgi,rrdtool,rrdupate

/usr/src/rrdtool-1.0.49/src/rrdtool
files are source files. which is where i did make uninstall from

under /usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49 there are folders but they are blank
folders,nothing in them.

this is what i followed below
http://martybugs.net/linux/rrdtool/#install
Installing RRDTool
SCP the tarball into the /usr/src directory on your linux box. From a
command prompt, change into the /usr/src directory, and un-tar the tarball:


cd /usr/src
tar -xzvf rrdtool-1.0.45.tar.gz

Change into the newly created directory:


cd rrdtool-1.0.45

Compile and install RRDTool:


./configure
make
make install

The default installation location is /usr/local/rrdtool-VERSION, so make
some symbolic links to the executables:


ln -sf /usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.45/bin/rrdtool /usr/bin/rrdtool
ln -sf /usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.45/bin/rrdupdate /usr/bin/rrdupdate
ln -sf /usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.45/bin/rrdcgi /usr/bin/rrdcgi

The RRDTool Perl library simplifies things when using RRDTool from a Perl
script, so to compile and install the Perl library for RRDTool:


make site-perl-install < which didn't work

Create a directory for RRDTool databases, and a directory for the web images
which it'll generate:


mkdir /var/lib/rrd
mkdir /var/www/html/rrdtool

Would it be safe to remove them files now ?

and try and find the right package this time.
it would be intertesting to see how the graphs show my network

what is the correct rrdtools to download to work with Cacti
any ideas please
