No updates with Cactid (cmd.php works)

Post by Elotemuygrande »

Hello, any ideas why cactid would not work, while cmd.php will? The uname/password in cactid.conf match that in mysql. The rrd etc directories are owned by the user that cactid is running as, however their parent directory is owned by root.

Code: Select all

cacti@oak:/usr/bin$ cactid
CACTID: Using cactid config file [cactid.conf]
CACTID: Version 0.8.6d starting
CACTID: Execution Time: 2.5458 s, Threads: 10, Hosts: 3

Code: Select all

Do these hosts actually respond to snmp? "snmpwalk -c <your_community> 'v <your_version> hostname"

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?
