network-weathermap not creating new maps

Post by webpagetech »

I just recently installed weathermap.

I used this tutorial to install php-weathermap-0.97c.
http://www.network-weathermap.com/manua ... ditor.html

When ever I go to view maps I get... "You Have No Maps" even though I manually created one from the sample file and put it in weathermap/configs.
I can't make new maps or copy maps in the GUI.
I can edit maps in the GUI that I copy and rename from the sample file via CLI. Editing the maps worked great but I can't view them.

It wouldn't be a bid deal to drop into CLI to make the map originally if I could only view them.

after a while of troubleshooting and re-installations of the plugin I opened up the permissions to 775 across the board so that root and www-data have rwx.

I'm was thinking at first that the cacti user might be different than I'm expecting but even if I change the permissions to 777 I still get the same errors.

Any idea what is the problem?

Let me know if you need any additional info.

Thanks for the help.

Go to Manage...Weathermap, and click Add. Pick the map config file you created from the list of files.

Weathermap doesn't just pick up all files in the config directory.
Weathermap 0.98a is out! & QuickTree 1.0. Superlinks is over there now (and built-in to Cacti 1.x).

OK that worked just fine for adding the map config file to the viewable maps but I still can't create a new map with the GUI Editor. I still have to get into the CLI to create a new map. I just cp the sample.conf to some other name then I can edit it and add it to the view-able maps all though GUI functions. :)

"Do you want to:

Create A New Map:

Named: ____________ <create button>
OR
Create A New Map as a copy of an existing map:
Named: ____________ based on <drop down of map configs> <Create copy button>"

The create button and the Create copy buttons don't work for me.

When I click them they look like they send all the necessary get vars but the conf file never gets made.
URL after click:
cacti/plugins/weathermap/editor.php?mapname=newMapName&action=newmap&plug=

Ah - if this is a recent version (0.97b or newer) then the filename must end .conf

This should be clearer, sorry!

um... that is weird I didn't write...

That did the trick. using the .conf extension successfully creates the map. Thanks!

I think I pressed edit instead of quote - so sorry for the confusion :-)

Hi,

In the www\cacti\plugins\weathermap\configs, there is only 1 file simple.conf, and it is used for 1st map.

When I go to Management > Weathermap > Add, it show below

So if I want to create new map, I have to copy ( clone) this simple.conf and rename it many times ?

You don't have to clone the existing file - just create a new something.conf file in the configs/ directory. The editor will do this for you, too. But weathermap won't process the map every five minutes until you add the new file in the Manage..Weathermaps page also.
