Empty Plugin Management Page

[umthroaway]

Hi everyone,

I want to install plugins for my cacti, I moved the plugins root folder to /usr/share/cacti/site/plugins, however Cacti's plugin management page is blank. Would appreciate any help on how to solve this issue

Specs:

• Cacti: 0.8.8f

• OS: Ubuntu 16.04

You won't get much support on such an old version of cacti. If I remember rightly, that version required a plugin architecture to be installed. Have you definitely done that?

I haven't not installed plugin architecture as I couldn't find any official documentation on it. Could you please point me towards any documentation regarding plugin architecture and upgrading cacti?

Thanks

Steps to upgrade cacti can be found on our documentation website https://docs.cacti.net, though it does vary from system to system depending on your base OS and wether you originally used packages or a manual installation.

Alright, I'll look into upgrading my version of Cacti. For now, is there any documentation on how to install the plugin architecture?

We recently purged all pre-1.x files from our servers so google may be able to help out, but anything that refers back to our sites for downloads will likely not work any more. I wish I could even point you in the right direction for searching but I never ran a 0.8 system because I just found it didn't quite work right for me so I went straight into the 1.x ones.
