cacti DB failed, updgrade lost everything

[netniV]

OK, the very first thing that really stuck out to me was that it claims your settings table has crashed and needs to be repaired. Also, a lot of tables are missing so It would appear something is seriously wrong with the database. Do you have a backup from before the upgrade?

[mrscary]

i had noticed that same issue, and I attempted to repair it before the upgrade to no avail.
I then made a copy of that database folder, attempted to do the upgrade, and well, the rest went down hill.
at this point I think im going to have to start over, which means importing all my tempaltes, scripts, etc.. unfortunately, I used to rely on a lot of the plug ins, and I think those no longer work whatsoever.

[netniV]

That would depend on the plugin. Some may work but any errors and 1.x will automajically disable them.

[mrscary]

wish there was a way to repair my old database so I didn't have to start from scratch.

[netniV]

There may be if you google for it. Unfortunately, I only know how to use MySQL and not an advanced supporter of it.

looks like cacti has its own repair_database.php. I ran that got this back

I didn't get any error when logging in (oh, the upgrade wanted to run again).. but when I login, all I get now is a white screen.

[mrscary]

ok I did a few things.. being desperate and all.
I got the db upgraded.. I got logged in.. my devices are all there.. but my settings are kinda jacked. I need to set the paths of my poller, spine, etc, but it wont keep my settings.

[netniV]

Are you getting any errors in your logs?

Something really isn't right here because that means the website is losing connectivity to the database whilst running the query:
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/gone-away.html

[mrscary]

ok wait.. im back in.. all my devices are there.
I had to stop MySQL.. copy my settings tables from my backup to the current directory, restart MySQL and the settings all showed up. I even sent a test message and it showed up.
im going to wait to see if my graphs actually populate data.

[mrscary]

zero data on my graphs.. logs don't show much, ill up load one in a little bit.. gotta fix an MS office issue on my PC first.
I log in, I get a white screen.. I F5, cacti shows up.
my settings WERE there.. now I cant get into that section .. it just doesn't do anything.

[netniV]

As well as your cacti logs, I would also check your apache logs to see what they show.

[mrscary]

running on IIS

[mrscary]

dunno if this helps.. but I get this error when I try to run the poller manually..
