[solved] Graphs are not being generated

Post by microthorne »

Hi,

I am trying to figure out why our graphs are not being generated. Not seeing any errors in the logs. If I look at the Poller Cache, I see this:

Code: Select all

Data Source: Localhost - Memory - Free  
RRD: C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\cacti\rra\localhost_mem_buffers_3.rrd  
Action: 1, Script: perl C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs/cacti/scripts/linux_memory.pl MemFree:
But the file does not exist in \rra. As a matter of fact, the only file in there is .placeholder. What information can I provide in order to get help with this?

Tried what was stated in this thread: http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t ... not+module
I no longer get the php -q errors, and the scheduled task now completes with error code 0x0. However, I still do no see any graphs. On occasion, the task times out at 298 seconds.

System Configuration:
Windows 2003 Server
Apache 2.0
rrdtool 1.2.11 (cygwin)
cacti G
MySql 4.1
Perl 5.8
PHP 5.0

DEBUG Log Output (using cactid):

1) Cacti doesn't like spaces in your file paths, so change it to something like C:\website\cacti

2) You realize you're trying to run a script meant for linux on a windows host? That will not work.

3) Turn the polling level in cacti to debug (Settings | Polling level) for one cycle and paste the output of the log file (./cacti/log/cacti.log). If it contains WEBLOG entries, then don't bother posting since they just clutter up the log. Turn off WEBEVENTS logging and try again.

1. Spaces no longer exist in the path.
2. Just want to see any graph work... :)
3. Disabled web events logging and left Poller "Statistics, Warning and Error"

Log:

09/22/2005 11:33:24 AM - POLLER: Poller[0] Maximum runtime of 296 seconds exceeded. Exiting.

Data Source: Localhost - Load Average  
RRD: C:\apache2\Apache2\htdocs\cacti\rra\localhost_load_1min_5.rrd  
Action: 1, Script: perl C:/apache2/Apache2/htdocs/cacti/scripts/loadavg_multi.pl
Still no graphs (broken images shown instead.)

AHA! Switched to cmd.php as the poller and I am now seeing graphs!
