Help with my Data Query XML, please

(Edited to add a more complete SNMPWALK output)

I've searched the forum for items related to the HWgroup's STE2 environment monitoring devices, but have come up short. I found some templates that were designed to work for HWgroup's older STE device, and I decided to use it as a baseline. I've gone through and modified the XML file for the STE2 using the OIDs as provided by HWgroup, but the XML file doesn't seem to work.

I know the device is reachable and that SNMP queries work from my Cacti host (notice that the OIDs change slightly after the first 8 pieces of sensor data: those are the "input" ports, whereas the following data are the "sensor" ports):

Code: Select all

End of MIB

Cacti does access the device as expected:

Code: Select all

STE2-LAB (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)
SNMP Information
System:STE2
Uptime: 68955600 (7 days, 23 hours, 32 minutes)
Hostname: STE2-LAB
Location: LAB
Contact: STE2-LAB: For more information try http://www.HW-group.co

But when I try to execute the query as part of a device within Cacti, I get the following:

Code: Select all

+ Running data query [10].
+ Found type = '3' [SNMP Query].
+ Found data query XML file at '/usr/share/cacti/site/resource/snmp_queries/ste2.xml'
+ Error parsing XML file into an array.
+ Found data query XML file at '/usr/share/cacti/site/resource/snmp_queries/ste2.xml'
+ Found data query XML file at '/usr/share/cacti/site/resource/snmp_queries/ste2.xml'
+ Found data query XML file at '/usr/share/cacti/site/resource/snmp_queries/ste2.xml'

And, of course, the status shows "Success [0 Items, 0 Rows]."

I was hoping somebody can help me figure out what I'm doing wrong. Here are the contents of the ste2.xml file I created:

Code: Select all
