lib/ping.php problem??

[Jayso]

Warning: socket_set_option() unable to set socket option [33]: Numerical argument out of domain in /usr/local/share/cacti/lib/ping.php on line 218


And it stops there..
Funny thing is it repeates the msg a few times before hand. but keeps going..
then it gets to the one and stops..
Any ideas?

Are you running PHP in safe_mode?

Check your php.ini file for the setting.

I kept getting these errors too:

PHP Warning: socket_set_option() unable to set socket option [33]: Numerical argument out of domain in /www/Tools/cacti/lib/ping.php on line 217


so I tracked it down....

socket_set_option($this->socket,
SOL_SOCKET, // socket level
SO_RCVTIMEO, // timeout option
array(
"sec"=>$this->timeout, // Timeout in seconds
"usec"=>0 // I assume timeout in microseconds
));


in the ping_udp and ping_icmp sections


from what I can see...

$this->timeout is being set from:
cmd.php:169 - read_config_option("ping_timeout")
in the call to ping.

I'm assuming that ping_timeout comes from the "Ping Timeout Value" field on the Poller screen in "Settings".

That doesn't field does specify whether the value is in seconds or milliseconds, however, mine has a value of 400. Which sounds more like milliseconds.

So the code for socket_set_option is trying to set a timeout of 400 seconds.

I've swapped the two values in my ping.php

ok, I apparently need to read closer.
That option says MICROSECONDS.
Not milliseconds.
So, I've multipled the this_timeout value by 1000
