Don't see plugins

[digdoug]

I think i've got the PIA install right. I have a Plugin Management item under Configuration, it's just that when I navigate there, no plugins are found. Mine's a Red Hat box, so the Cacti install dir (it's an EPEL package) is /usr/share/cacti. I installed the plugin I wish to use in /usr/share/cacti/plugins/aggregate.

Versions:

(Cacti Version: 0.8.7g, Plugin Architecture Version: 2.8 )

Here's what I put in my config.php:

/* load up old style plugins here */
$plugins = array();
//$plugins[] = 'thold';
$url_path = "/cacti/";

Anyone have any ideas?

Ok,
I changed

/usr/share/cacti/plugins/aggregate-070B2

to

/usr/share/cacti/plugins/aggregate

and I now see it on the Plugins Management page. So I'm guessing the directory name has to match the plugin name for things to work. If so, it's a shame the tarball was created with this errant pathname. Anyway, happy now.

It is a general recommendation not to store a second directory like "aggregate*" along with "aggregate" or use "aggregate*" instead of "aggregate".
The same holds for all plugins

I have same problem, but my config.php have:
/* load up old style plugins here */
$plugins = array();
$plugins[] = 'aggregate';
//$plugins[] = 'thold';
$url_path = "/cacti/";

My "Plugin Management" have only a message:
No Plugins Found

How to fix?

Checking the apache error log tends to lend on advice on these things.
