Not generating interface traffic graphs

[rplc1976]

Forgive me for being stupid but I know what you mean and I can see that now in the log file I put above, I removed all data sources for a particular host and added the host back again but still the same thing happens.

c:\rrdtool\rrdtool.exe create \

I have already checked the path and it is correct, it just doesn't create an RRD file

An example of a graph that was working on Friday and has just stopped.

[rony]

Code: Select all

DS:traffic_in:COUNTER:600:0:100000000 \
DS:traffic_out:COUNTER:600:0:100000000 \
DS:traffic_out:COUNTER:600:0:100000000 \
DS:traffic_in:COUNTER:600:0:100000000 \ 

This is the classic signs of a duplicate data source problem. The solution is outlined in the post that TheWitness linked. Go to that post and go to the first page and read through it. It explains your problem and the solution.

HURRAY

I did indeed have two extra data sources....I deleted them and left ID 54 and 55.

I can now created new graphs However all the existing graphs still aren't displaying any data

[rplc1976]

In the poller cache I can only see entries for CPU and MEM etc. I can't see anything relating to interface graphs.

Any ideas what may cause this?

Thanks

[rplc1976]

The CPU and MEM graphs work fine, just the interface ones dont.

Can anybody help?

Thanks

Robin,

How long have the interface graphs been down? What version of Cacti are you running? Please insure that you are at at least 0.8.6c. My first response to anyone running a version of 0.8.6x below 0.8.6c is to upgrade.

TheWitness

[rplc1976]

They all went down on Friday. I have been running them for weeks .

I dont' have access to the server at the moment, but Im quite sure its above 0.8.6c

It only appears to be interfaces that aren't appearing in the poller cache

Thanks

Robin

[TheWitness]

Did you clear it? Are you planning on dumping the db and e-mailing?

TheWitness

[rplc1976]

Yes I did, but after a short pause it comes back showing the same entries again....Should the poller cache actually show as empty ?

[TheWitness]

No. Please verify your version and then apply the patches in www.cacti.net for 0.8.6c. They will help if you have lot's of hosts. BTB, have you updated PHP lately?

TheWitness

[TheWitness]

You realy need to send your db. I am going out in a few minutes and won't be back until about 9:00pm EDT.

TheWitness

[rplc1976]

Ah ok. Erm can I get a copy of the DB from the webpage?

Shall I email it to you later?

Is there anything I can check for you?

[TheWitness]

It's easier to just mysqldump and send along. I don't have all day.

TheWitness

[rplc1976]

sorry, not sure if I could do that....I didn't set it up sorry.

Can give u a login if u like?
