Ooopps, I'm sorry, try:

bash-2.05# ls -ld usr/local/apache2/htdocs/cacti-0.8.6b

I suppose "nobody" has not permission to write under cacti directory.

Ok, your cacti installation is owned by user 500 and group 100. And apache is being executed by "nobody" (on Solaris nobody's uid is 60001). Your cacti installation is only writable by user 500 (drwxr-xr-x), so "nobody" has no permission to write under cacti-0.8.6b.

There are several approaches to work around this issue:

a) The shortest (I prefer the other):

being root, execute:

# chmod -R 777 /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/cacti-0.8.6b

b) Recommended:

- create cacti user:

# mkdir /export/home
# groupadd -g 100 cacti
# useradd -u 500 -g cacti -s /usr/bin/bash -d /export/home/cacti -m cacti
# passwd cacti

- change User in httpd.conf, so

User cacti

- restart apache

Now it should work. If not:

- being root:

# chown -R cacti:cacti /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/cacti-0.8.6b

Hope this help,

At the end, putting the following command in crontab of user root functions well. Graphics and data are generated.

0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /usr/local/bin/php
