Graph Presets

[Willie]

I am on cacti 0.8.6b with all of the patches from the site applied (pre-packed directory) and when I go to the graphs page, I will get a 404 error is I select a "graph preset" such as "last week". It appears that the URL doesnt get properly posted.

Larry,

Wanted to give you an update on the graphing problem that I am having. It appears to be something changed in IIS6 on 2003.

Here are the symptoms.
log into cacti,
click on "graphs" tab
everything is ok the first time
click on the console tab
everything is always ok on the console tab.
click on the graphs tab
left pane (treeview) is ok, right pane is just a grey color with nothing on it.
drilling into the treeview and clicking on a leaf will pull the right side back up properly.

However, under IIS 6, if I select an item from the presets drop down, I always get a 404 error. Here is a cut from the url:
http://89.10.12.37/&predefined_timespan=4

Notice that the graph_view.php is missing!

Regards,

Willie

Larry,

Here is an update to the graph presets issue. I have tracked it down and found a difference between IIS 5 and IIS 6. The get_browser_query-string function from functions.php returns nothing if running under IIS 6. It appears that the isset for REQUEST_URI is returning a true even though there is no value from phpinfo(). Below is the test script that I am using on IIS 5 and 6 to test the differences. The workaround for me is to modify functions.php and just have the get_browser_query_string skip the isset. I am not sure if this is the correct way. Any guidance would be apprciated.
