CereusReporting - PDF Reports - 4.00 for Cacti 1.x out soon!

[Atreides]

I've checked the .png's , everything seems ok, I can open them, I'm seeing the graphs, everything looks ok. Only problem is that the pdf isnt created. I've uploaded all the files, sent email also.

[phalek]

Hm, so the basics are working fine also the files you've send do not show any issues.

Is there any way to get remote access to that system e.g using Teamviewer ?

[Atreides]

Yes, I'm sending ID and pass on email.

[Atreides]

Ok, this is fscking weird . Now its working again, the only problem is from "Manage Reports --> preview report". Its saving a file with tmp errors. I changed "Report Graph format" from default to "2 Graphs, 2 Columns". But it doesnt make any sense, since I've changed it back to "default" and PDF's are created.


PS : This CereusReporting - Add Report ( Preview Report ) problem, how can I fix it?. 'tho, its not a big issue, since I can run reports from Cereus Tab. Thank you for support phalek.

[phalek]

Guess why the images contain "preview" in them ? It's because it's a preview ...

It's only showing you how the report looks like without putting the actual graphs/images in it in order speed up the preview generation process.

Errors are marked as images stating "Cannot open tmp/123123-123-123/file.png".

[Atreides]

Yeah, didnt look closely enough , I guess everything is working properly then. Thank you very much.

Hi

I'm currently working on a dynamic license model based on the number of hosts.

An initial 19 hosts will be free ( currently this is set to 200 data sources ).

Prices will start quite low.

You can check your current active host numbers with the following SQL Statement:

Code: Select all

SELECT count(id) FROM host WHERE disabled!='on';

UPDATE: Changed Datasource to hosts

[phalek]

Look here for some pricing details of the Dynamics Version:

i have 2.80.81 running on centos, all seems OK except when generating a report, the pdf is generated but adobe reports the pdf is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged.

Any pointers to where to start troubleshooting currently set to mPDF engine but have tried the other one and still same result?

Thanks

[phalek]

Sure,

open the file in notepad and look at the error in there. A text error is in there in about 99% of the issues with the actual PDF not being ok.

Next, increase the loggin mode to debug (Console->Settings->NMID ) and look at the log file in /path/to/cacti/plugins/CereusReporting/tmp.

It should provide some further information.

Also look at the "Debug Info" page for any obvious issues.

[DwayneDibbley]

This is reported at the top of the pdf when viewed with a text editor :

debug only shows soap php module not installed?

Thanks again

[phalek]

ok, the next step is to enable php error logging. Look for the "errro_log = syslog" entry in your php.ini file and uncomment that. Then restart apache and retry creating the report.

Your syslog should contain some php error messages.

[DwayneDibbley]

unfortunately the syslog reports the same error:

Thanks

[phalek]

do you have this enabled in your php.ini file ?

display_errors = On

[DwayneDibbley]

Yes

display_errors = On

Thanks

The report scheduler is set to cron if that is any help and not the poller ( the cron job outputs to NULL i believe? )
