Nectar 0.35 wont send reports. Assistance appreciated

Post by lavati »

I think i posted this in the wrong section under announcements so apologies for the repost.

I'd Love it if someone could help with the issue i have and this plugin.

The plugin is going to do exactly what i need and would be a godsend.

I've set it up, but when i try to send a report via email i just get a blank page and nothing in my maillog. I'm not sure really where to debug.

Nothing shown in cacti.log

Info:
Cacti 0.8.8
Nectar 0.35a
Ubuntu 11.10

Plugin installed no problems, without me editing anything in the code.

Installed postfix and mailutils and successfully send a mail from the OS.

Questions:
How does nectar choose the mail client on the OS? I see no settings in cacti to point to a mail binary path
How could i debug why nectar just returns a blank page in the browser when i try and send a report.

Any help would be appreciated.

Edit: I'm just wondering the permissions of nectar files in the plugin dir are all 500, 501 and nectar.php is not +x i wonder if that is the issue
Edit2: I adjusted all persmisions to be chmod +R cacti:users plugins/nectar/ and still just a blank page when try sending a test reportl. Also when scheduled nothing comes through.

There appears to be no mailer.php in 0.8.8+ The simple fix was to copy mailer.php from plugins/nectar/0.8.7g/mailer.php to plugins/settings/include/. There is probably a better fix but this works for now.
