No Graphs in Fedora

[mt97]

Hello there.

I'm new to cacti, but I was able to successfully install the application(s) and even add hosts; however, I'm not seeing any graphs for my hosts. I've read the manual and the FAQ and followed the instructions (I think...).

I know that files are being created and updated in the /raa directory


Output of ls -al /raa:

If I run the php poller.php command I get

So I think everything is functioning as it should

I've attached a screenshot of a graph list so you can see the lack of graphics.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks,

I fixed this my symlinking all my rddtools into /usr/bin/

I then went to console>settings>general and seting to the corrct ver of both rrd and net-snmp

I then went back to the device settings for the host and reseting
"SNMP Community"

one of those fixed the issue.

now I jsut have blank graphs.

It was the symlinking stuff

I'm sorry, but I'm unfamiliar with the symlinking requirement in cacti. Did I miss something in the instructions? Or is there a log that would let me know that a link has been missed? Where do I do this?

Any help you can give would grealy appreciated!

Cheers

symlinking is *nix thing. When i installed rddtools it didi not put the files into the PATH directry.

So i went and created the simlinks for all the rdd exacutable files in my path


man ln

will tell more about links and how to crate them.

[mt97]

Thanks. I've used ln before, but I was unsure how it applied in this context. So you symlinked the rrd directory to your PATH directory?

Thanks again and cheers.

[blata]

not the directory just the files in /usr/local/rrdtool-???/bin/

[mt97]

hmmm...I'll have to read up on ln, because I'm not sure what I'm linking the rrd to..but I really appreciate the help you've given me.

Thanks again.

I found my problem...and it was actually a dumb mistake.

Apparently, I installed both rrdtool v. 1.2 and 1.0 when I installed the necessary components. I set Cacti to use rrdtool 1.2 on the configuration page, but the path pointed to the 1.0 version of rrdtool which was located in a different directory....after I found out I had a path mixed up, I changed it and it works like a charm.

Thanks for all the assistance!
