Cacti on RHEL3?

bitpusher · Post by **bitpusher** » Wed Mar 16, 2005 8:37 pm

I'm running RHEL 3 WS Update 4. When I install the fedora core 3 version,
I get the following errors :

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) in /var/www/html/cacti/lib/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 339

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: cacti_log() in /var/www/html/cacti/lib/database.php on line 51

Any idea what's going on?

After following the patch, and making my config.php look like this :

nclude($config["library_path"] . "/adodb/adodb.inc.php");
include_once($config["library_path"] . "/functions.php");
include($config["library_path"] . "/database.php");

db_connect_real($database_hostname, $database_username, $database_password, $database_default, $
database_type);

I'm still getting the following errors :

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) in /var/www/html/cacti/lib/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 339

Notice: Use of undefined constant POLLER_VERBOSITY_NONE - assumed 'POLLER_VERBOSITY_NONE' in /var/www/html/cacti/lib/functions.php on line 327

Cannot connect to MySQL server on 'localhost'. Please make sure you have specified a valid MySQL database name in 'include/config.php'.

I am using the correct mysql databasename, username, and password.

What version of MySQL. If version 4.1.x, did you specify the old passwords hack? The other issue is just a screwed up patch and is not a problem (for now anyway). We need to move "inclue\config_constants.php" before "lib\functions.php".

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: read_config_option() in /var/www/html/cacti/include/config_form.php on line 651

Put functions ahead of everything else and try again.

Still the same error message :

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: db_connect() in /var/www/html/cacti/lib/database.php on line 110

what library does db_connect com from? php-mysql's mysql.so?

Has anybody actually gotten cacti to work properly on RHEL? It seems that RedHat went out of their way to break php (removing php-snmp, etc).

I got Cacti to run on RHEL3, but am having rrd graphing problems, errors when creating new graph trees & no hosts being shown in the devices view. poller.php also states that "there are no items in the cache or polling is disabled" I have polling enabled, I'm not sure what I need to do to get "items in the cache"

any ideas???

thanks
Brett

dieselpower,

go to "System Utilities-> Clear Poller Cache".
This will populate your poller_item table in the mysql-db.
You may have a look at this using

Code: Select all

mysql --user=<cactiuser> --password=<cactipw>
> use cacti
> select count(*) from poller_item;
(Now you will see the output of the command)
(use following command to clear the poller cache if problem persists)
> delete from poller_item;
>quit

<cactiuser> ist the cacti database userid in <path_cacti>/include/config.php
<cactipw> is the cacti database user pw

I've encountered today the same problem on Red Hat Advanced Server 3, have you solved?
