Thanks to Howie for your weather!
When I use weathermap,I can't display device icon but your document have ICON section. Something wrong in my weathermap?

Thanks God and Howie

Finally i solve all the problem and I can see the map correctly.
Last two aesthetic questions:
1.) When I use icon, I can't see the label. Why?

2.) Where can I find turkey map? I see france and other country map drawing briefly...

Another problem is described here:

[root@cacti-test /]# pwd
/
[root@cacti-test /]# /www/htdocs/cacti/rra/weathermap.php --htmloutput /www/htdocs/cacti/rra/test.html

Warning: fopen(weathermap.conf): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /www/htdocs/cacti/rra/Weathermap.class.php on line 709
Couldn't open config file weathermap.conf for reading
[root@cacti-test /]# cd /www/htdocs/cacti/rra
[root@cacti-test rra]# ./weathermap.php --htmloutput test.html

How can write this in crontab?

TFC,

I had the same problem with my crontab. I never get an updated map via cron so I switched to Weathermap4RRD which does not need any sheduled cron jobs to get an actuall map.

The only thing I miss is the overlib plugin function from Howie's solution.

here is the script:

Code: Select all

[root@cacti-test scripts]# more wm.sh 
#!/bin/bash

pth=`pwd`

cd /www/htdocs/cacti/rra
./weathermap.php --htmloutput test.html
echo `date` html creation is succeded! 

cd $pth

then add crontab this script

Code: Select all

*/5 * * * * /root/scripts/wm.sh > /root/scripts/wm.log 2>&1

Hi in howie's code, I have an warning like this:

Data is not most recent entry (3) for link: internet_router_1_traffic_in_67.rrd

What does it mean?
How can I solve if a problem exists.

Searched for a solution to my problem and have not seen this particular problem posted(unless I'm blind which is entirely possible) so here it is.
I am trying to create multiple 'wmaps' with 2 different config files and 2 cron jobs but the second keeps overwriting the first.

The cron job "php /var/www/html/stats/cacti/wmap/weathermap.php --config wmap.conf --htmloutput index.html" creates my overall network map and then "php /var/www/html/stats/cacti/wmap/weathermap.php --config la.conf --htmloutput la.html" creates a local map for one of my remote sites.

Any ideas why one overwrites the other?

You need to use the --output option too, otherwise both runs will create a weathermap.png...

I'm thinking that it might be a good idea to allow you to set the two output filenames in the config file, actually, to make the command-lines a bit simpler.

That worked. Didn't realize it created a default weathermap.png.

Or put them all in one script and run that from cron.

Nice work Howie!

I am having a strange problem with my weathermap. I'm going to apologize in advance if this has been asked before. My weathermap works perfectly when traffic on the links I am measuring stays above roughly 50K. Once it drops below that 50K mark the data is no longer correct and the arrow has no color. My cacti graphs are working correctly, no fruityness there. I am running everything on a WindowsXP Home box.

Any ideas?

thx

What do you have the BANDWIDTH set to for that link, and what are the bottom few elements of your SCALE? Come to that, which weathermap version?

My guess would be that you are dropping below 1% of your link speed... If it's php-weathermap, then the most recent (0.5a) version allows for decimals in the SCALE so you can have a 0.1-0.5 etc.

AK-Whitehawk · Post by **AK-Whitehawk** » Fri Jul 01, 2005 10:22 am

I am using version 0.5a and the bandwidth statements are between 512K and 1M. However, my scale starts at 1% so I think you are absolutely right that I am dropping below the 1% mark. I will try and define my scale to include the less than 1% measurements.

Thanks for the help.

Hi Howie,

First I want to say thank you for your version of php05a.

I had trouble getting 'gd' extension to work in unix so I did it in windows. Using your php05a version, I was able to get everything to work except I am not getting any data on the graph produce. The OVERLIBGRAPH works fine. I was able to get data when I use Weathermap4RRD, but that doesn't have overlibgraph.

I used the command: php weathermap.php --config example.conf --output weather1.png --htmloutput index.html

Thanks

I don't understand... Do you mean that you just get grey arrows? Do you get any error message? Have you tried the --debug option?
