I have the same issue with 1.2.4 on debian, even if I start again from the beginning by create again /usr/share/cacti/site/
it starts from the same error:

Code: Select all

INSTALL: always: Spawning background process: /usr/bin/php '/usr/share/cacti/site/install/background.php'

Why installation progress is remember even if I create new cacti site? how to start from scratch?

Hello Zuku,

are you upgrading or installing cacti? If upgrading from what version?

[zuku]

upgrade from 1.1.3

[optimist]

upgrade from 1.1.3

Did you run this script?

sudo -u cacti php -q cli/upgrade_database.php --forcever=1.1.38

IMPORTANT
When using source or by downloading the code directly from the repository, it is important to run the database upgrade script if you experience any errors referring to missing tables or columns in the database.

Changes to the database are committed to the cacti.sql file which is used for new installations and committed to the installer database upgrade for existing installations. Because the version number does not change until release in the develop branch, which will result in the database upgrade not running, it is important to either use the database upgrade script to force the current version or update the version in the database.

Running Database Upgrade Script
sudo -u cacti php -q cli/upgrade_database.php --forcever=`cat include/cacti_version`
Updating Cacti Version in Database
update version set cacti = '1.1.38';
Note: Change the above version to the correct version or risk the installer upgrading from a previous version.

You should not update the version table directly, as the upgrade scripts do that for you.
