it is the carriage return char that occurs under windows.

ways to get rid of it:

dos2unix <file>

under vi - :%s/<control-v><control-m>//g

whole lotta tips

Please make peace NO war .... I am using both since years, with problem on both. I am sure we could add feature in this plugin for linux too.
(you can also use ultraedit.exe)

A lot of better ... But ...
1/ The previous settings are not saved !! I clicked before on "list view" and "hosts with error", but it come again with the default ....

2/ Could you do a dynamic host breadth or calculated with the longest host name? (I am lazy and don't want to slide the cursor each time).

3/ What about my UDP ports ? (67)

I have loaded the latest version and changed the perl line to match my linux config. I am not seeing any error's in the log file but my devices are not being updated under mange any more. If I add any in they just stay blue for waiting and the uptime is not changing. I did not have this issue on the previous versions.

Any thought on what I can do to get it running again? I am using the regular Cacti poller.

jherrinike,

perl is only needed if you select something other than "none" for "netsend events" in "settings"
try to select "none"

in "settings", for "windows patch" : select "no"

have you something in the logs related to "manage" ?
try searching after "Checking Manage" in cacti.log

what appends when you launch "check-manage.php" from shell ?

egarnel,

can you run this check-manage.php ?

http://gilles.boulon.free.fr/manage/che ... ge.php.txt
normally, it won't do anything but it won't do errors too...

at the end of the file, there are 3 lines commented :

Code: Select all

//exxec("./" . $exe . " " . escapeshellarg($args) . " > /dev/null &");
//exxec("./" . $exe . " " . escapeshellarg($args) . " > /dev/null 2>&1 &");
//exxec("./" . $exe . " " . escapeshellarg($args));
can you give me the results for each "check-manage.php", please...

it is important that each "exec" process run in the background and don't block the script
i don't know how to do this in linux/unix

No cookies, more simple, you were near of the solution.

in setup.php line 268 replace

Code: Select all

		$v = read_config_option("manage_list");
with

Code: Select all

		$v1 = read_config_option("manage_list");
		load_current_session_value("simple", "sess_device_simple", $v1);
		$v = $_REQUEST["simple"];
and in manage.php line 33 insert

Code: Select all

load_current_session_value("simple", "sess_device_simple", "");
load_current_session_value("group", "sess_device_group", "0");
load_current_session_value("err", "sess_device_err", "0");
load_current_session_value("cbo_host_status4", "sess_device_cbo_host_status4", "0");
For "cbo_host_status4" I am not sure of the default value, so I put "0";

PS: you can also add a button clear (like Mactrac ... a lot of good examples). In this case you will have to add.

Code: Select all

	if (isset($_REQUEST["your_clear_request"])) {
		...
		kill_session_var("sess_device_simple");
		...
		unset($_REQUEST["simple"]);
        }
