about import Template

[adl0921]

Hi,
It's about Import Template from local file failure on cacti 1.2.4 and 1.2.5.
I import the template then i got the import preview results(as the attachment below) but checking the templetes Device and Graph is no new added.
May I miss something?

Thanks.

You are just importing the template. You need to create either an automation rule, or manually add the devices and create the graphs afterwards.

Yes.
When i manually add the devices and choose the Device Template I have no found the templete i import before.

Oh, sorry, it's a language issue. You did not import, you simply "previewed". It's a bit annoying, but it was done that way so that people would see the changes before they actually broke something by importing a bad template.

When importing template, the monitor shows 「C:\fakepath\xxxx」
I am wondering.
I have a bad template ?
What should i do ?

[Osiris]

The is because the file is not readable by the browser. It's the way they work. It's just a fake path.

OK. I found the problem.
Disable Preview Import Only and everything goes well.
Thanks.
