Problem with ping, hostpartition and cpu-values[SOLVED]

[cpt_ahab]

I changed cacti from cmd.exe to cactid.exe without any big probs.
But now the ping.pl skript isnt workin.

This is the output from the cactid poller:
CACTID: Host[13] ERROR: Empty result [192.168.11.129]: 'perl E:/inetpub/mrtgroot/cacti/scripts/ping.pl 192.168.11.129'

Host[2] ERROR: Empty result [192.168.10.39]: 'E:/PHP/php.exe -q E:/inetpub/mrtgroot/cacti/scripts/query_host_cpu.php 192.168.10.39 public 1 get usage 0'

If i run the line in the commandshell like this it works fine as you can see.

C:\cactid>perl E:/inetpub/mrtgroot/cacti/scripts/ping.pl 192.168.11.129
10

C:\cactid>E:/PHP/php.exe -q E:/inetpub/mrtgroot/cacti/scripts/query_host_cpu.php 192.168.10.39 public

3

C:\cactid>E:/PHP/php.exe -q E:/inetpub/mrtgroot/cacti/scripts/query_host_partitions.php 192.168.10.39

Here is the script. I changed it a bit for windows.

#!/usr/bin/perl

$ping = `ping -n 1 $ARGV[0] | grep.exe Antwort`;

$ping =~ /(.*Zeit)(<|=)(.*)(ms|usec)/;

print $3;

The Datainputmethod is Script/Command and here is the path:

E:\Perl\bin\perl.exe <path_cacti>/scripts/ping.pl <ip>

I dont know why there is valid returnvalue.

any suggestions....?


thx in advance

[cpt_ahab]

had to install cywin.
thought the dll in the cactid dir is enough.
everything works fine now, except our webserver which is a windowsmachine.
cpu load and disk space arent returning values

any ideas??

Got the Problem with the query_host_partition.php -script

The script cant handle special characters in the community string. I had # and ! in it. Numbers and Letters work fine now.

One possible reason is that your scheduled task to run poller.php, is using an account that doesn't have the proper permissions to gather info from remote machines (especially WMI stuff).

As for why snmp gathering fails with the script but works manually, I'm not sure. I assume, you ran them from the same machine?
