[SOLVED] autom8 not creating graphs

[Sirup]

Okay thanks a lot..

Can you also help me with the bug of the white screen and resulting from it that autom8 isn't working?

[gandalf]

All plugins using the hook device_action_prepare like thold_device_action_prepare MUST return $save (the parameter passed to that function) unchanged in any case. This is required so the next plugin can interpret the data.

Mhm, this is a nice technical information - But how can I change something, that autom 8 is working?

[gandalf]

You will have to edit e.g. thold modules (or different plugins), because not AUTOM8 is broken but those different plugins.
Search e.g. for device_action_prepare in thold's setup.php. There, you'll find the function name that has to be verified. Post the first 10 lines of that function and I'll tell you what to change

I just do not use the plugin thold. As my signature says just these: aggregate 0.74, autom8 0.33, loginmod 1.0 and nmidweb2 0.3

I didn't found the pattern device_action_prepare in aggregate, nmid oder loginmod files.

[gandalf]

Bad. This always matched in the past.
So please increase logging level to MEDIUM and grep cacti.log for "AUTOM8 TRACE". That should tell me a story.

[Sirup]

Nothing!

I gave up on this.

But today I tried to apply the autom8 rules on a different cacti system - Same thing! Autom8 worked before the freebsd-portupgrade e5 (which just ruined all plugins..)

Will have a look if I can fix it - if not, I think cacti is not usable together with FreeBSD Ports, because the PIA is unfortunately not included in the FreeBSD Port

why don't you just grab the tgz file and install cacti on FreeBSD yourself ? I found that to be the easiest method to get cacti up and running on *NIX systems.

The package maintainer seem to fiddle around with the cacti source way too much, sometimes even messing arround with the config files ...

I would love to - But I am not the boss here
My boss believes hardly in FreeBSD-Ports.
So no chance for me not to use the ports-version.

Also the port-version crashed some of the cacti-config files..

[Sirup]

I reinstalled in steps...

1) Reinstalled Plugins -> Didn't work
2) Reinstalled PIA - > Didn't work
3) Copied the .tgz from the HP to the /cacti/ dir -> Didn't work
4) Reimported cacti.sql and ca.sql in MySQL database -> Works

...But all my configuration is lost. This is just not a satisifying.
There must be somewhere an issue with the mysql-database and autom8...

Update: Interessting behavour: It worked. After clicking "Apply autom8 rules" once, the graphs were created - but after clicking it again - same issue with the blank screen again?

This is the table plugin_hooks from the Cacti instance, where autom8 is not working:

This both do not work:

Code: Select all

    
      php <cactipath>\cli\repair_database.php
      mysqlcheck --auto-repair --databases cacti

[Sirup]

And another test....

Inside mysql:

Code: Select all

drop database cactiio;
create database cactiio;

From bash:

Code: Select all

#Import default cacti.sql
mysql cactiio < cacti.sql --password
Import LIA sql
mysql cactiio <pa.sql --password

From /cli/:

Code: Select all

Script to import all devices
Script to import all Tree Items

Granted Permissions to Plugin Management, Installed and enabled autom8.

Made an Autom8 rule by hand - Clicked Show Matching Hosts/Devices -> Showed me the correct graphs.

Clicked "Apply Autom8 Rules" -> WHITE SCREEN again.
Same thing happens, when I add some devices manually by hand and not by script.

There must be somewhere a mistake in autom8 ;(

[phalek]

did you enable php debuggin in the php.ini file and send the log either to syslog or a file ? That may provide an error message ...

[Sirup]

I'll try instantly (after lunch ) - Thanks a lot!
