Can't get this to run on Ubuntu. Getting a "can't open" error

[DeeL]

hi,

Would you mind telling me which ubuntu version you're using, what is the exact error and which functions your did activate.

Ubuntu Server v 10.04 64bit
error is
/bin/sh: Can't open
and comes after I have dl'd and chmod'ed per listed code.

[hammer733]

I have noticed I can do the commands individually, just not the script for some reason. Also since I have a proxy, I need to preceed a wget command with wget -e http_proxy=http://myproxy.com:80 "http://www.site.file.tar.gz".

Is there a way to save this in the script. If you could help me do that it would be great. Doing it all by hand is very time consuming. That is what makes this such a great script. Just hope I can get it all working.

Tried everything I could think of.

root@wwb018-syslog01:~# dir
cacti_autoinstall_151.sh jcameron-key.asc
root@wwb018-syslog01:~# chmod a+x cacti_autoinstall_151.sh
root@wwb018-syslog01:~# ./cacti_autoinstall_151.sh
/bin/sh: Can't open
root@wwb018-syslog01:~# sudo ./cacti_autoinstall_151.sh
/bin/sh: Can't open
root@wwb018-syslog01:~# dir
cacti_autoinstall_151.sh jcameron-key.asc
root@wwb018-syslog01:~# sh cacti_autoinstall_151.sh

Have the proxy thing worked out. Just edited the script where needed.

Okay, some progress. I think the script must have got corrupted along the way. I downloaded it again, made my proxy, user, pswd etc changes and bingo. It installed !!! However, I did end up with a couple errors. Any thoughts would be much appreciated. See below.

Then when I point my web browser at Cacti I get the following. Any ideas is much appreciated.

FATAL: Cannot connect to MySQL server on 'localhost'. Please make sure you have specified a valid MySQL database name in 'include/config.php'

UPDATE:
Just did a fresh Ubuntu server install adding only openssh, then ran the script and it worked beautifully. Thanks for a wonderful script.

Hey hammer. so sorry I took so much time to answer, I see you've finally managed to get it work congratulations

Today I'll issue a new version with the latest patches.

about the proxy as it's not related to the purpose of the script I'll think about it in a few days, for now you'd probably better consider using a wgetrc file instead of modifying the script.

Hi,

I've published a new version of the script including :
- the new spine patch
- a new version of the cycle plugin
- a new version of the realtime plugin

I'll test it fully tomorrow.

Hi,

V0.35 was supposed to include the latest cacti patches but since I couldn't get them to work with the PIAv2.8 they have been commented in the script and are not installed for the moment.

There were also 2 bugs with the new cycle plugin during install :
- the new archive is named cycle-[...] and used to be cycle_[...]
- the tar archive is making a "cycle" dir and used to make a "cycle_XXX" dir

both were fixed, I can't change the official file names but I'll force the untared dir names in the future.

I'm working on cacti patches, v0.35b should be available soon.

Regards,

Deel

Dear friend,

I want to install the latest cacti i.e. 0.8.7g with all plug ins. I tried hard but after installing plug in architecture , the cacti stopped working.
So I found your post while searching through google but I could not download the "cacti_autoinstall_208.sh" file. Would you please help me out.

Thanks in advance.

The script ran fine for me with my Debian Netinstall.
I had to open a command root console for some reason if I opened a normal console and used sudo or su it would not run
The only issue I have is I am not seeing the tabs for plugins I install. I can configure them and install the from Plugin management but they never show up on the main page ?

[DeeL]

Thanks all for your feedback HAPPY NEW YEAR

V 0.36 is ready, nothing fancy, august patches of cacti were missing, plus an update of the PA.

EDIT : V0.37 is ready, mainly plugin additions: LoginMod, Monitor, Nectar, Spikekill and thold
