Difficulties creating rrd-files

MikeXXL · Post by **MikeXXL** » Tue Apr 12, 2005 9:44 am

Hi,

after some Installationproblems, I can login.
I have two devices, localhost and a Networkswitch. After some trys, I get the graphs for the localhost, but only with -1. I get no graphs for the Switch.

Installed Components
WinXP pro SP2
cacti-0.8.6c
mysql-4.0.24-win
php-4.3.11-Win32
apache_2.0.53-win32-x86-no_ssl

The Debug of the Switch graph:

1) I suggest you post the error messages in english
2) Turn in debugging for one polling cycle and paste the results.
3) Do you have perl properly configured and installed on the system (can you go to the command prompt and type perl -v and get output) ?

If you install cygwin, these problems will go away. But most of them are related to graphs and datasources assigned to localhost that do not work on windows. If you remove localhost and re-add it as a windows host, you will not have those errors anymore.

FYI, Google is your friend.

Did you real the log file?

04/13/2005 09:43:58 AM - CMDPHP: Poller[0] Host[3] SNMP: Host did not respond to SNMP
04/13/2005 09:43:58 AM - CMDPHP: Poller[0] Host[2] SNMP: Host did not respond to SNMP

There is your problem. make sure to verify that the snmp version, community, port, etc is correct with GetIF or snmpget

MikeXXL · Post by **MikeXXL** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 1:48 am

Just tested snmp
SNMP Works.
Turn Debug on, the Logfile is empty

But i´ve get following message

C:\>php poller.php
Status: 404
Content-type: text/html
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.11

No input file specified.

What happens now?

BSOD2600 · Post by **BSOD2600** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 2:18 am

I doubbt you installed Cacti to the root of your C drive. Run that again in your cacti directory...

MikeXXL · Post by **MikeXXL** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 2:25 am

sorry, wrong directory

MikeXXL · Post by **MikeXXL** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 3:40 am

Looking and searching

I think, my problem is the poller task.

The Taskmanager ignore the user/pw constellation.

btw. which password does the Task need, from the windows user ???

thx Mike

MikeXXL · Post by **MikeXXL** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 4:16 am

I´m a little bit confused

cacti says ( from logfile)
04/14/2005 10:57:01 AM - CMDPHP: Poller[0] Host[4] SNMP: Host did not respond to SNMP

If I open the dos-box

C:\>snmpwalk -v 2c -c public 10.148.123.6 system
SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr.0 = STRING: BayStack 470 - 48T HW:#07 FW:3.0
.0.5 SW:v3.5.0.59 ISVN:2
SNMPv2-MIB::sysObjectID.0 = OID: SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.45.3.46.1
SNMPv2-MIB::sysUpTime.0 = Timeticks: (803255149) 92 days, 23:15:51.49

Also if i read the oid with WS-Ping-Pro I get the right Info´s.

Maybe something wrong with the MIBs?

MikeXXL · Post by **MikeXXL** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 8:13 am

I change some things

I give the Path for snmpget and walk into cacti.

delete the host, create a new one ( generic snmp/Interface)-save

In the Main menue, create new Graph, mark the Interface- save

Now cacti create the rrd file, but two times the interface in.

I checked the Interface.xml, it seems o.k.

why this now?????

BSOD2600 · Post by **BSOD2600** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 11:56 am

Looks like it only created one rra file to me. You probably didn't delete the old rra file when you deleted the host from Cacti.

You should get a valid graph now. Do you?

Yes, it works, I get Graphs Hurra.....
