New Install: Looping on "Waiting on 1/1 pollers"

Post by MrPaul »

This is a new install. Versions are below

rrdtool-cygwin-1.2.11 (from Cacti site)
net-snmp-5.1.3-1
cacti-0.8.6f
mysql-4.1.13a
php-5.0.4
apache_2.0.54

I'm getting the error below when running poller.php. This is the debug output. Any ideas?
C:\Apache2\htdocs\cacti>php poller.php
08/14/2005 10:20:50 AM - POLLER: Poller[0] DEBUG: About to Spawn a Remote Process [CMD: c:/php-5.0.4-Win32/php.exe, ARGS: -q c:\apache2\htdocs\cacti/cmd.php 0 1
]

Changed binary path as follows and now I'm getting a "not enough arguments error.
c:/php-5.0.4-Win32/php-win.exe
C:\Apache2\htdocs\cacti>php poller.php

With debug enabled, post the cacti.log file from one cycle to determine which command sent the "ERROR: Not enough arguments"

I general the scripts that you are running are tailored to a Linux/Unix host. You need to delete your current graphs and queries (with the exception of Interface) and add some more specific to Windows.

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?

Yea, saw that once I looked at the proper debug output. I was running one of the provided perl scripts as it it was querying localhost instead of using SNMP.

Thanks for the quick replies!

Yeah that localhost target seems to get in there by default, it was OK when I installed on Linux but when I installed on Windows it definately caused the "waiting on 1/1 pollers" problem.
