Sorry in advance, ive tried all I can before asking..

I can get my graphs to populate data, but putting a graph in debug mode says RRD is ok.

When I run poller,php manually I get the below message:

[root@localhost ~]# php /usr/share/cacti/poller.php
PHP Warning: date(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'Australia/Melbourne' for 'AEST/10.0/no DST' instead in /usr/share/cacti/cmd.php on line 61
OK u:0.00 s:0.00 r:0.00

But I have changed my php.ini as below and I still get this message:

[Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
; http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.c ... e.timezone
;date.timezone =Australia/Melbourne


Im running centos 6.7 and I have turned of selinux.

Thanks for your help

The line is still commented out. You need to remove the semi-colon from it so it looks like this:

Code: Select all

[Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
; http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.c ... e.timezone
date.timezone =Australia/Melbourne

Then restart the webserver afterwards so that PHP reads in the new setting

Now I get this cron error:

06/23/2016 09:41:17 PM - POLLER: Poller[0] NOTE: Poller Int: '300', Cron Int: '300', Time Since Last: '22276', Max Runtime '298', Poller Runs: '1'

[phalek]

Only once ?
Do you use ntp ?
Did you manually run this or via cron ?

[timed_out]

Yeah looks like only once looking through the cacti.log:

[root@localhost cacti]# cat /var/log/cacti.log | grep POLLER
06/23/2016 09:41:17 PM - POLLER: Poller[0] NOTE: Poller Int: '300', Cron Int: '300', Time Since Last: '22276', Max Runtime '298', Poller Runs: '1'

Yes I use NTP and I run it via a cron:

[root@localhost cacti]# cat /etc/cron.d/cacti
#*/5 * * * * cacti /usr/bin/php /usr/share/cacti/poller.php > /dev/null 2>&1

Thanks for your help,

[timed_out]

Oh and the remaining issue is that the graphs just don't populate, but RRD looks ok, would it be a permissions or ownership issue?

Go look at these graphs and especially check the future.

It may be that they got updated with a future date ( due to wrong timing ), so you will not see anything today.

If this is a fresh system, go and delete the files in the rra directory to be sure they are ok now.

[timed_out]

Thank Phalek,

I have left Cacti polling overnight for several nights, but still no data. Yes this is a fresh installation, but I have uninstalled Cacti once and reinstalled just to see if I could fix it. Same issue though.

I have deleted the files in the rrd directory and will give it some time.

Cheers

Yes I use NTP and I run it via a cron:

[root@localhost cacti]# cat /etc/cron.d/cacti
#*/5 * * * * cacti /usr/bin/php /usr/share/cacti/poller.php > /dev/null 2>&1

Why is your cron entry commented out?

[timed_out]

looking at the article I used, the linux command line prompt in his instructions didnt have a space after it (like in the rest of his steps), so I thought it was needed..

Thanks mate

Yes I use NTP and I run it via a cron:

[root@localhost cacti]# cat /etc/cron.d/cacti
#*/5 * * * * cacti /usr/bin/php /usr/share/cacti/poller.php > /dev/null 2>&1

Why is your cron entry commented out?

and yeah I admit, im an idiot.. I didnt actually look at it properly when creating it.. Still noting so fat thought.. As Janet Jackson once said.. Lets wait a while..

[timed_out]

Now I get this when I run the poller manually (even though cron should be working now):

[micke2k]

Did you remove the rras after running poller --force ?

Check the permissions on the rra folder, make sure the file dates update every poller run.

[timed_out]

Yep removed the rrd files and they update when I force run the poller:

[root@localhost rra]# php /usr/share/cacti/poller.php --force
OK u:0.00 s:0.00 r:0.00
