Help with installing/configuring cactid

[danletkeman]

I'm in need of some help with using cactid instead of cmd.php for polling. I know I'm doing something wrong but i just can't find out what it is.

I have set the MIBDIRS & the PHPRC correctly (tripple checked those). If i use cmd.php everything works fine. Any ideas as to what i have missed?


Cacti 0.8.6g
cactid 0.8.6f-1
mysql 4.0.26
php 5.0.5.5
rddtool 1.2.x
net-snmp 5.2.1.2-1
Windows server 2003 sp1


Thanks, Dan.

1) Read the guide in my signature for additional tips
2) Install the patches for cacti
3) Those few mib errors when you run it manually, occur because they are not present in your mib directory. Cacti/cactid does not use MIB files, so you can ignore them anyways.
4) When you ran cactid next time, turn the logging level to medium or debug and post the contents of the log (don't do screenshots... post the actual cacti.log file).

Actually this is the guide that got me working in the first place, thank you very much.

2) Install the patches for cacti

Done, didn't seem to make any difference

3) Those few mib errors when you run it manually, occur because they are not present in your mib directory. Cacti/cactid does not use MIB files, so you can ignore them anyways.

Ok, thanks.

4) When you ran cactid next time, turn the logging level to medium or debug and post the contents of the log (don't do screenshots... post the actual cacti.log file).

Ok here is my log file.
