[Solved] Advanced Ping ss_fping.php on Cacti 1.0

[cjolly3053]

Has anybody tried lately or with version 1.0 to get the Advanced Ping (ss_fping.php) working???

I really need to get some better visibility to some devices latency and this looked like a good option but just can't seem to get it to work.

This is the error I get trying to run it manually:

/usr/bin/php /var/www/html/cacti/scripts/ss_fping.php localhost
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function split() in /var/www/html/cacti/scripts/ss_fping.php:26
Stack trace:
#0 /var/www/html/cacti/scripts/ss_fping.php(20): ss_fping('localhost')
#1 {main}
thrown in /var/www/html/cacti/scripts/ss_fping.php on line 26

Here is what I see in cacti log:

error1.JPG (47.8 KiB) Viewed 2914 times

Now I'm sure this could have something to do with the version of php this was created on and the version I am running (7.0) but if anybody has got this working let me know.

Also if anybody know's or a better way to graph the availability / latency of a device I can only ping please let me know.

Well awesome that makes sense.... Any easliy enough that was just simply replaced by explode.

Just changes line 26 and 133 and it worked.

Thank you for identifying that.

split function was DEPRECATED in PHP 5.3.0, and REMOVED in PHP 7.0.0.
split() is deprecated as of PHP 5.3.0. preg_split() is the suggested alternative to this function.
Just changes "split" line 26 and 133 to "preg_split" and it worked.

I think preg_split expects the string to have a proper regular expression so make sure you have the expression prefix and suffix.
