Hi all,
I have 3 CactiEZ running on different servers, in all of them i have the same issue when trying to start the embedded Nagios that comes in this CD.
This is the message when i point to <server_ip>/nagios
Whoops!
Error: Could not read host and service status information!
So searching in google i find some possible solutions:
"go to console and try "/usr/bin/nagios -v /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg" and see the output
At first i got this error:
Error: Cannot open config file '/etc/nagios/misccommands.cfg' for reading: No such file or directory
Error processing object config files!
and in another site i found how to create that file and what put on it so i did it:
# 'host-notify-by-email' command definition
define command{
command_name host-notify-by-email
command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios 2.6 *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nState: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo: $HOSTOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n" | /bin/mail -s "Host $HOSTSTATE$ alert for $HOSTNAME$!" $CONTACTEMAIL$
}
# 'host-notify-by-epager' command definition
define command{
command_name host-notify-by-epager
command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "Host '$HOSTALIAS$' is $HOSTSTATE$\nInfo: $HOSTOUTPUT$\nTime: $LONGDATETIME$" | /bin/mail -s "$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert - Host $HOSTNAME$ is $HOSTSTATE$" $CONTACTPAGER$
}
# 'notify-by-email' command definition
define command{
command_name notify-by-email
command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios 2.6 *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$" | /bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert - $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
}
# 'notify-by-epager' command definition
define command{
command_name notify-by-epager
command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "Service: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\nInfo: $SERVICEOUTPUT$\nDate: $LONGDATETIME$" | /bin/mail -s "$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$: $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$" $CONTACTPAGER$
}
Then the error and warning disappear:

But now when i point again to the nagios server its says:
Whoops!
Error: Could not read host and service status information!
and i tried to run Nagios from console but it fails:
[root@localhost /]# /etc/init.d/nagios start
nagios is stopped
Starting nagios: [FAILED]
Just dont know what to do now... its really strange because it happens in three different servers and they are all clean installs from CactiEZ CD. Bytheway, Cacti is working fine with lots of hosts graphs and weathermaps.
Any ideas what to try next?

Re: CactiEZ 0.7 Released
I am having the exact same problem. I get the links, but the torrent file is corrupt and the http link does nothing. Anyone have the torrent file they could share?werik7 wrote:Just saw CactiEZ in a class and decided I had to have it.
I have tried to download it from multiple machines, OS and internet connections and can not get the download to complete with http. I can't even get it to start with the torrent.
Help!
thanks

Whoops!
Error: Could not read object configuration data!
Here are some things you should check in order to resolve this error:
Verify configuration options using the -v command-line option to check for errors.
Check the Nagios log file for messages relating to startup or status data errors.
Make sure you read the documentation on installing, configuring and running Nagios thoroughly before continuing. If all else fails, try sending a message to one of the mailing lists. More information can be found at http://www.nagios.org.
Re: CactiEZ 0.7 Released
I have installed the version 0.7 on Centos and the updates etc. After I have set up several devices with no issues new devices show a status of unknown and never gets to up. How can I resolve this? I am using SNMP and Ping with ICMP ping the configuration shows that the SNMP and Ping are both good but the device sticks at an unknown status. A resolution to this would be greatly appreciated.
Re: CactiEZ 0.7 Released
Hi,
I have a problem in CactiEZ where I have created a map in the Weathermap editor but it is not showing up under the Weathermap tab, it says I have no maps. Any suggestions as to how to get the map to show up?

Re: CactiEZ 0.7 Released
Hi,
I am using CactiEZ 0.7.iso with builtin Cacti version 0.8.8a.
The default setting of cacti0.8.8a is
Poller type =SPINE
Polling interval = 1 minutes
Cron Interval = 1 minutes
I have added 200 LAN devices. Now issue is that some devices are in UP state and some in UNKONWN state. The devcies in UP state are plotting graph properly. But in cacti.log i am receving errors for SPINE timeout:
05/06/2017 02:09:02 PM - SPINE: Poller[0] ERROR: Spine Timed Out While Processing Hosts Internal
05/06/2017 02:09:01 PM - POLLER: Poller[0] WARNING: There are '1' detected as overrunning a polling process, please investigate
So i changed the default Polling interval and cron interval to 5 minutes. After the changes all the devices with UNKNOWN status becomes normal and this error is cleard from cacti.log.But now all the devices have stop creating GRAPHS and showing NAN value. If the click realtime button on graph then it shows the traffic but normal graphs are not plotting.
If i change the polling interval back to 1 minute than the old graphs again start making but SPINE timeout errors again started. But unknown devcies still dont create graph.
Please guide to make this normal.
Regards,
