No Graph but data in

[DaCthulHu]

Hello,

My Config :
Operating System: Windows 7 x64
Webserver: Apache 2.2.16
Cacti: Cacti-0.8.7g
I Used the Package from BSOD2006 package(Full Install from Cacti-0.8.7g_1.95.exe). It's my second install on this computer (first had same result).

It's a fresh install, no configuration, ALL DEFAULT SETTINGS.
I just create few Devices & Graphs.

I have ping result on "Devices" but nothing in graph

I don't find any NTFS issues in Processmonitor

Do other scripts work fine against that device?

IF you manually run: perl C:/Apache2/htdocs/cacti/scripts/ping.pl xx.xx.xx.xx -- does it work?

My Config :
Operating System: Windows XP SP3
Webserver: Apache 2.2.16
Cacti: Cacti-0.8.7g
Cygwin 1.7.9-1
I Used the Package from BSOD2006 package(Full Install from Cacti-0.8.7g_1.95.exe)

I have exactly the same problem as DaCthulHu

04/07/2011 05:30:01 PM - SPINE: Poller[0] Host[4] Description[BA_207 AU01_XL] ERROR: Empty result [172.31.255.81]: '/usr/bin/perl C:/Apache2/htdocs/cacti/scripts/ping.pl 172.31.255.81'

I have run

C:\USR\bin>perl C:/Apache2/htdocs/cacti/scripts/ping.pl 172.31.255.81
Terminating on signal SIGINT(2)

C:\USR\bin>

and i needed to stop by CTRL+C because nothing happened

I have investigated the ping.pl file and it show like this:

#!/usr/bin/perl

# take care for tcp:hostname or TCP:ip@
$host = $ARGV[0];
$host =~ s/tcp:/$1/gis;

open(PROCESS, "ping -c 1 $host | grep icmp_seq | grep time |");
$ping = <PROCESS>;
close(PROCESS);
$ping =~ m/(.*time=)(.*) (ms|usec)/;

if ($2 == "") {
print "U"; # avoid cacti errors, but do not fake rrdtool stats
}elsif ($3 eq "usec") {
print $2/1000; # re-calculate in units of "ms"
}else{
print $2;
}

I have tested ping from cmd (cygwin is in the path, so ping is cygwin variant no windows built-in)

and I have noticed that -c is not accepted, so i have modified the 7th line in ping.pl as shown above

open(PROCESS, "ping $host | grep icmp_seq | grep time |");

After that
C:\USR\bin>perl C:/Apache2/htdocs/cacti/scripts/ping.pl 172.31.255.81

I manually run

C:\USR\bin>

The syntax of the command is incorrect.
C:\USR\bin>ping 172.31.255.81 | grep icmp_seq | grep time

C:\USR\bin>
C:\USR\bin>

So, I think the problem is generated by multiple "grep" but I don't now how to fix this
Thank you in advance for help

Both of you need Perl installed for the ping.pl (perl) script to function. It would appear it's not or something else related to it is misconfigured. Additionally, using perl to ping a host is quite inefficient -- there are better ones in the script forum.

I have ActivePerl installed

C:\USR\bin>

Can you recommend me, please, a version of perl to use (and how to configure it if necessary) with my configuration?

Operating System: Windows XP SP3
Webserver: Apache 2.2.16
Cacti: Cacti-0.8.7g
Cygwin 1.7.9-1
Full Install from Cacti-0.8.7g_1.95.exe

[BSOD2600]

Hmm, that version of perl should be fine.

Do you have cygwin installed too? If so, I think its perl is actually being run instead of ActiveState. What happens if you use the full path to activestate's perl to launch ping.pl ?
