Issue with new Cacti 1.1.37

[CiscoCertified]

I am trying to install cacti 1.1.37 on new Windows 2012-R2 64bit server using:

- Apache 2.4.33 Win64
- PHP 7.2.4
- MySQL 5.7.21.0
- rrdtool-1.2.15

it never works with me, I have tried everything but with no luck. I reached very good place in installation of this tool till I got stuck . now I am able to add the device but no graphs template or data query appear to me.

I am attaching some picture to show what I have & hopping to find the solution here.


Thanks in advance for your support.

OK so not really sure about Cacti on Windows as I have never run it there. However, I will say that I can see a problem immediately with your CSRF in that it is trying to write to c:\temp and that folder either does not exist or the user that the website is running under does not have permissions to read/write/modify there.

Thanks netniV

the error message is cleared, but about graphs template and data query still there is no options there + the devices status it shows me Unknown

I believe there will be no status until a graph is created. That was what I had experienced in the past.

[netniV]

It's normal for 'Unknown' until the Poller.php has been run and created the RRD files for the graphs. The graphs status and display is then read from the RRD files. I would check that your poller is indeed running and able to create the RRD files in the <cacti>/rra folder.

nothing in rra folder

I followed the same steps showing in this website. I think it will never work in windows server.

[camerabob]

Try opening the write permissions in the folder to 'everyone' and see if that changes things. If you do get data, find the owner of the new files and limit the writing to that user.

[netniV]

As this is a windows box, camerabob's idea isn't a bad one. Once you know what user is creating them, you can remove the everyone permission and add the creator. You will still need to allow the website user permission to read though (generally users have read access to most folders under the C:\ drive).
