Dear fellows,
My basic Cacti installation works like a charm but both MackTrack plugin and now Manage plugin are not polling automatically.
I have just added the manage plugin and it has the same symptoms as MacTrack:
It doesn't anything automatic, I have to invoke the polling manually by issuing 'php check-manage.php' and/or 'php -q poller_mactrack.php -f'
I feel this is somthing basic since all other plugins are OK.
Have I missed something?
Greetings
Dritz

Hi cigamit,
-------------------
[root@netwatch mactrack]# php -q poller_mactrack.php -d
DEBUG: About to enter MacTrack poller processing

I have attached a shot (Picture 6) of my Mactrack Status, I have changed the start time a couple of times and the last time I did it was 5 day ago. As you can see on the status the Mactrack poller has not been running since may 20. (and this was manual invoked).
-------------------
Now it is past midnight and a new shot of Mactrack Status is 'Picture 7'.
And a debug of the macktrack shows:
[root@netwatch mactrack]# php -q poller_mactrack.php -d
DEBUG: About to enter MacTrack poller processing
DEBUG: Into Processing. Checking to determine if it's time to run.

Is Mactrack designed to work only with Cactid?

Try moving the Mactrak plugin to the top of the plugin array, and test it again. It may be that another plugin is causing it to fail. I've seen it happen before, especially with the Reports plugin (which is why I still have it in beta)
Great tip!
I have switched off the Reports Plugin, what a great impact!
I have noticed the errors from the Reports plugin in the cacti.log, and would have dealt with this problem after this. I think I will enjoy my system as it is now.
I know you have heard it before but anyway: Great work you are doing!
