Problem with graph template and data source input

[huaraz]

Hi Forum

I tried to create a new graph template with three input requirements:

Graph Item Inputs
Name
Legend color
Legend text
Ping/Ping6 data source

But when I assign the graph to a device template and then try to add the new graph to a device I only get asked for Legend color and Legend text and not for the data source.

Create Graph from Unix - Ping Latency
Graph Items [Template: Unix - Ping Latency]
Legend color Cacti Color (0000FF)
Legend text

The attempted creation of the graph ends then with a failure.

Operation successful
The Operation was successful. Details are below.
Created: Localhost - Ping Latency
ERROR: No Data Source associated. Check Template

BTW I noticed when I add a name to the graph input data field it is also copied into the graph template name e.g. I had Ping/Ping6 data source overwriting Unix - Ping Latency ( which seems wrong )


I use Version 1.2.2 (upgraded from 0.8.7)

Thank you
Markus

Cacti 1.2.17 will be released this weekend. It has a fix for these things.
