[scavenger67]

The alert email message is working perfecly.
But by using lotus notes, i receive the following message :
"http://yfxxxx/cacti/graph.php?local_gra ... 2&rra_id=1"

the html link cut after the = sign !
ex : http://yfxxxx/cacti/graph.php?local_graph_id= and i can't see the associated graph.
anyone got a solution ?
either there is an image on the bottom of the html link but i onyl see image in red. what's kind of image is it ?

Thanks for the help

I receive these two errors when selecting Auto-create thresholds:

Warning: main(D:\www\infrastructure\cacti\lib/thold-functions.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in D:\www\infrastructure\cacti\thold.php on line 18

Warning: main() [function.include]: Failed opening 'D:\www\infrastructure\cacti\lib/thold-functions.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;C:\php5\pear') in D:\www\infrastructure\cacti\thold.php on line 18

Fatal error: Call to undefined function autocreate() in D:\www\infrastructure\cacti\thold.php on line 40

I'm running Cacti 0.8.6d on W2K with PHP version 5.

Any suggestions?

Finaly I managed to launch it to remote mail server.
I didn't have sendmail on my linux machine, but configured exim to forward messages to remote mailserver.

Everything works fine right now.

Really great feature. Huge Thanks for developers.

oharel: Go under user_Management / select the user / make sure 'View Thresholds' is selected under Realm Permissions. Is 'thresholds' available on the left side of the console screen? Can you view them manually under http://[cacti_url]/graph_thold.php ? It is possible that the files did not get installed properly

got that fixed - did not install it properly to begin with...

another issue i am having: i am not receiving any alerts mails, unless i run:
php /var/www/htdocs/cacti/thold/check-thold.php
for which i get:
Content-type: text/html
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.0.2

RRA: 915 : ping

and then i receive them all in a bunch...
in php.ini, other than the path to sendmail, i dont see anything relevant for linux.

any ideas?

thanks

do u need my current version? Thold 2.1.a .
why?

I got everything to work correctly in window, except sending an email. I was wondering where is the file that trigger the email alert. I know you say that php uses the default email to send email, could this be outlook express. I am stuck and don't know where to go. Can anyone guide me to the right direction. Thanks.

Dear,
I tried to use the Syslog option in Thold on my Windows 2000 Server.
I have a windows syslog daemon running on my machine.

But i see no messages in the syslog.

What am i missing ?

[JimmyC]

After investigating i've found that the messages end up in my Eventlog on Windows.
But i want to use the syslog, not the eventlog.
This seems to be the default behaviour of PHP.
from PHP manual:

On Windows NT, the syslog service is emulated using the Event Log

any workarounds ?

[TheWitness]

I wrote it, so first pass is no. However, what syslog utility are you using? If you had to execute it, how would you do it?

[JimmyC]

TheWitness:
We use Kiwi Syslog daemon ( http://www.kiwisyslog.com/ )

I've found a workaround: used NTsyslog ( sends all eventlog messages to a syslog server ).
Works fine.

[TheWitness]

Good. So that is a tool that replicates what is sent to the various logs to a syslog facility?
