0.8.7e plus 0.8.7e-PA-v2.6 not working on CentOS 5.4

Post by arlequin8 »

Hello,

Have installed cacti from package manager (see packages and version below).

Installed Plugin Architecture not patching but overwriting the files as the PA intallation guide suggested in case of cacti distro package installation. Imported the pa.sql file, too.

I've deployed a couple of plugins, too but I really don't know how to determine if PA is running ok nor take advantage of the installed plugins.

I am attaching screenshots since I don't know how to check whether it's working or not.

Environment:
  • CentOS 5.4
    php 5.1.6
    mysql 5.0.77
    cacti 0.8.7e
    cacti-spine 0.8.7a
Thanks in advance

Can you do show tables in your cacti database to see if the tables have been created when importing the SQL data?

You did not follow the instructions:

Code: Select all

mysql cacti < pa.sql
Then, give yourself permissions to Manage plugins under User Management.

I get the "Access Denied" message:
You are not permitted to access this section of Cacti. If you feel that you need access to this particular section, please contact the Cacti administrator.

I'm logged in as admin, actually.

Goto user admin and give yourself access. If there is no pick, check the the apache error log for a clue.

admin user has all the privileges and the Apache log error doesn't give a clue :(
