blank screen

Post by talia11 »

Hi All,

I have the following issue and have been searching for hours now, but can't find a solution. The network weathermap plugin has installed fine, I got the "Weathermap" tab on the top and have the menu link on the left hand side. However whichever I click, I only get a blank screen, no errors, no text, no images...nada... :( :(

I have a newly installed VM - Ubuntu 12.04, running Apache2. Installed Cacti 0.8.8a with Plugin Architecture 3.1. As a note I have the same issue with Superlinks as well.

Thanks for the help upfront.

As an update, it seems that the issue lies with the include paths contained in weathermap php files. I get the following (and similar) error logs:

[Sun Dec 01 10:19:15 2013] [error] [client 90.209.210.148] PHP Warning: include_once(): Failed opening './include/auth.php' for inclusion (include_path='.') in /usr/local/share/cacti/plugins/weathermap/weathermap-cacti-plugin.php on line 6,

I also installed weathermap as a standalone, but again, I just get a "URL not found on this server" error. I tried changing some of the include paths, no luck so far, as I am not sure what is expected.

Anyone got any idea after this?

is this with cacti installed from an ubuntu package? The debian/ubuntu guys love to move things around from their normal places...

I don't understand what you mean about 'as a standalone' - weathermap without cacti doesn't have a web interface.
Weathermap 0.98a is out! & QuickTree 1.0. Superlinks is over there now (and built-in to Cacti 1.x).
Some Other Cacti tweaks, including strip-graphs, icons and snmp/netflow stuff.
(Let me know if you have UK DevOps or Network Ops opportunities, too!)

Hi thanks for the reply, yeah I installed cacti with apt-get install. After your comment I will probably try a different method. By standalone I mean, that weathermap can be placed direct in the /var/www/ folder in which case I should be able to get the default weathermap.png and use the webeditor, but as I mentioned earlier URL error saying "index.php cannot be found on this server" :(

stange..... :o

Hmm, that IS strange. Check the apache2/error_log and see if it's looking somewhere other than where you think?

thanks for replies, this has now been sorted. Turned out this affected all my plugins and the structure had to be changed and plugins installed locally.
