rrdtool 1.2 Error

[MikeMcr]

I just upgraded from Cacti 0.8.8g to 1.1.16 on a Synology NAS and everything seems OK except graphs don't draw. They give the error:

Code: Select all

ERROR: unknown option --pango-markup

My rrdtool version is 1.2.30 and I double checked the Cacti requirements page which still says 1.0.49 is the minimum. However, the earliest I can choose on the Settings page is 1.3.x.

I asked the provider of the packages for Synology if we could get a newer rrdtool but was told no because versions after 1.2 need Xlib.

Is there a way to make Cacti work with rrdtool 1.2 again?

Cacti 1.x requires 1.3+. Get a raspberry PI.

Cacti 1.x requires 1.3+. Get a raspberry PI.

I resolved it by using Docker to run just rrdtool 1.5.

You've got to love docker.

Yep, the footprint was tiny using Alpine Linux. rrdtool 1.5 was already in the repository.

Can someone explain how to install rrdtool with docker ??
Thank you
