Post by mazeed »

I have installed the Cacti 1.2.27 on linux machine with all the plugins. i am able to get live graph but it is unable to store the previous time graph. such us if i click to see the last few hours or days graph its empty.

The poller status shows idle.

Are you using https for your router OS setup or is it http?

The reason I ask this is because when I rewrote the API to be compatible with the latest RouterOS a few years ago I did not enable https.

So that you know this is a Mikrotik plug-in issue.

You must have the wrong password then or the wrong API port. The API does not currently work with HTTPS. It's not a big fix, just no one has requested it.
