poller.php does not work for me

Post by tkawasaki@fbr.com »

I have got two problems.
1. can not seem to excute
/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/cacti/poller.php

error says ...


[root@thongvilay tatsuya]# /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/cacti/poller.php
<br />
<b>Warning</b>: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in <b>/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/cacti/lib/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php</b> on line <b>342</b><br />
<br />
<b>Warning</b>: MySQL Connection Failed: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client
in <b>/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/cacti/lib/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php</b> on line <b>342</b><br />
<br />


but ..
dodb-mysql.inc.php p342 is something to do with myql_connect function..
so I created a simple test php..

<html>

<?php
$link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'cactiuser','xxxx');
if (!$link ){
die('could not connect'.mysql_error());
}
echo 'connected suscuessfully';
mysql_close($link);
?>

</html>

this seems to work..


further for some reason, adodb-mysql seems to look for the lock file /tmp/mysql.sock where was mysql by default create a lock file in /var/lib/mysql
I do not know why.. I created symoblic link for asking adodb-mysql to complain...

another major thing is that
when I tried to graph it says.


2. RRDTool Says:

ERROR: opening '/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/cacti/rra/snmp_oid_14.rrd': No such file or directory


Any idea why clearly it is not there but..

/html>
[root@thongvilay cacti]# ls -al /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/cacti/rra/
total 8
drwxrwxrwx 2 cactiuser cactiuser 4096 Jun 22 14:04 .
drwxr-xr-x 11 cactiuser cactiuser 4096 Jun 24 16:59 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 cactiuser cactiuser 0 Jun 22 14:08 .placeholder
[root@thongvilay cacti]#

any idea what is going on..

You may need to enable old password support in MySQL 4.1. Please use MySQL Administrator.

thanks for TheWitness.
after using debug tool that cacti has, all the error appeared to be gone.
it seems that it start graphing ..
there is one more thing that I can not figure at this time is that Ping reponse says device mangement, it show ICMP respose.
it says average ping time of any host are over 100ms.
SOMETHING wrong here, I think CACTI did not putting correct info from ping result.
other than that .. it seems to be okay for now.

If you are using ping method SNMP, I would expect results along those lines. If you are using ICMP only, I would expect them to be less. If you are using both, it averages the two. Which method are you using?
