[quote="SkipLacky"]I apologize if this has been talked about before, but.....

I'm having issues getting through the compile. It seems it cannot find my net-snmp libraries.

I've encauntered the same issue when trying to compile cactid 0.8.6i beta 3 version on solaris 8 box. I eventually managed to do that with net-snmp version 5.2.3 and using the config.ac file from svn...

also you need to run aclocal, autoheader automake and autoconf...

Cheers,

Vlad

Right Vlad I am perpelexed as well as when you look at the configure.ac file, it is looking for the presence net-snmp-config.h and it should have found it with both versions.

So, this makes no sense as it's in the same directory with both installs. So, I am assuming that you made with the test version using the --with-snmp... option, am I correct?

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?

Yeah,

you are right. I used when configuring --with-snmp=/tmp/net-snmp version 5.2.3, but I also tried with the same option --with-snmp=/usr/local/net-snmp where the 5.3.1 version is insatlled whithout success.

On Thursday I have a sceduled work order to install cactid in the production environment so I'll try again and post you the results.

Anyway cactid works fine in testing environment, and although I have just 3 devices and a few interface graphics here is the result:

10/17/2006 12:20:01 PM - SYSTEM STATS: Time:1.0951 Method:cactid Processes:1 Threads:1 Hosts:5 HostsPerProcess:5 DataSources:32 RRDsProcessed:22

Now, I'll go for a patch to get this 1-min polling enabled....

Cheers,

Vlad

FYI.....

I have net-snmp 5.3.1 installed.... perhaps I should downgrade to 5.2?

What OS are you running?

I was not able to compile it on Solaris 8 using net-snmp 5.3.1...

ARG!!!

I've tried to switch back to catid-g....... and now I cannot get that to run properly.

This is what I see when I run it manually.

10/17/2006 11:43:51 AM - POLLER: Poller[0] DEBUG: About to Spawn a Remote Process [CMD: /usr/local/cactid/bin/cactid, ARGS: 0 1]
Waiting on 1/1 pollers.
Waiting on 1/1 pollers.
Waiting on 1/1 pollers.

This continues until the maximum runtime expires.

In the cacti logfile, i see this over and over again.

10/17/2006 11:53:08 AM - CMDPHP: Poller[0] DEBUG: SQL Assoc: "select poller_id,end_time from poller_time where poller_id = 0"
10/17/2006 11:53:08 AM - CMDPHP: Poller[0] DEBUG: SQL Assoc: "select poller_output.output, poller_output.time, poller_output.local_data_id, poller_item.rrd_path, poller_item.rrd_name, poller_item.rrd_num from (poller_output,poller_item) where (poller_output.local_data_id=poller_item.local_data_id and poller_output.rrd_name=poller_item.rrd_name) limit 10000"


And when it finishes........
10/17/2006 11:53:18 AM - CMDPHP: Poller[0] DEBUG: SQL Exec: "replace into settings (name,value) values ('stats_poller','Time:293.2040 Method:cactid Processes:1 Threads:1 Hosts:2 HostsPerProcess:2 DataSources:5 RRDsProcessed:0')"




Ideas?

Almost like the cactid.conf file is not setup correctly.

Yeah, I know.

But, i've double checked all my config files, and they're all correct.


Any other ideas?

su to the poller user, then attempt to connect to mysql as the user you configured in cactid.conf. Then attempt to read records from the poller_item table.
