Hey guys my setup was running fine under cmd.php but when I switched to cactid I am not getting rra files gernerated and when I "php poller.php" I get

Any ideas why this is happening?

[ChuckP23]

I was able to get it working by not having cactid in /usr/local instead in the home directory.

The default 127.0.0.1 works fine, however when I add a new host it just ignores it when processing data, any ideas? The hosts, and data sources change but the RDRsProcessed remain the same.

When I run as user "root" it allows 127.0.0.1 and no SNMP servers. When I run as the user that is suppose to run it, it doesn't create any RRA files.

When I switch back to cmd.php everything in RRA graphs, but once I switch to the cactid it stops anything based on SNMP traffic. My load was getting too high with the cmd.php.
