Problems with graphs - new user, new install

Quote

Post by jantman » Tue Jan 30, 2007 3:48 pm

Some of this has been resolved. The parts that haven't, I've been able to understand a bit more with an afternoon of work. You may want to skip to the 5th post down for an update... any advice would be greatly appreciated...

Hello,

I just installed cacti on a SuSE Linux server. My network to be monitored includes a Linux box running IPcop (debian-based), the localhost, and a Bay Networks BayStack 450-24T switch.

I configured as follows:
3 hosts -
"Localhost" as a Local Linux Machine (template) with graphs for Linix - Memory Usage, Unix - Logged in Users, Unix - Load Average Unix - Processes. Shows status as Up. These graphs appear to work fine.

"EXT1" is the IPcop firewall/router, with snmpd running. I can "walk" it manually from the localhost and get information out. Using template "Generic SNMP-enabled host" with graphs for Linix - Memory Usage, Unix - Logged in Users, Unix - Processes, Unix - Load Average and a data query for "SNMP - Interface Statstics". Problem 1: there is no option to add interface/traffic graphs for this host, even though I added the data query. Problem 2: The graphs for Memory Usage and Load Average are identical to the ones for "Localhost", I checked this manually on both machines with top and uptime, and they are nowhere near the same.

"SW1" is a BayStack 450-24T switch, with SNMP enabled. I created the device with the Generic SNMP-enabled host template, and added a data query for SNMP-Interface statistics and graphs for Interface - Traffic (bits/sec). Problem 3: The device view shows this as "Is being graphed" and shows the proper System and Uptime under "SNMP Information" at the top, but lists it as "Unknown" in the Devices list.

Any ideas on any of these problems?

Thanks for coping with a beginner,
Jason

Ok, I made a few changes.... I set the poller logging to debug, and then grepped /var/log/cacti.log for the device name "SW1". Results:

I also cut the SW1 device down to one graph, just Interface - traffic (bits/sec). If I turn on Graph Debug Mode, I get

Code: Select all

I am serving from Apache2 running as user wwwrun and group www. The cron job for poller (installed everything via RPM) is running as user wwwrun. The /var/lib/cacti directory is owned by user wwwrun and group users, with user and group rwx.

In my Apache error log, I have lots of:

I'm also getting some other errors that seem to pertain to EXT1, such as :

I believe that I found the answer to problem #2 - is it possible that the perl script for Load Average is localhost only, not over SNMP?

Ok, I've spent the afternoon working on this, and was able to understand a bit more of it. I have 2 hosts setup for Generic SNMP, with graphs and data sources defined. Neither of the SNMP hosts will graph, but the localhost will. I'm running under Linux. In the rra/ directory, I *only* have localhost_*, nothing for the two other hosts (a Linux router with SNMP running, called "EXT1", and a Bay Networks switch, called "SW1").

At the moment, I am getting a message like:
ERROR: opening '/srv/www/htdocs/admin/cacti/rra/sw1_traffic_in_67.rrd': No such file or directory

for *all* of the graphs on the two SNMP devices, but not localhost. I have confirmed with snmpwalk that the information is there, and when I created the hosts, the correct information on device type, etc. showed up at the top of the device screen.

The status of both devices is "unknown". If I turn on Data Source Debug Mode, I don't see any errors.

If I go to "view poller cache", I don't see entries for any of the SNMP checks (Interface) for either of the devices.

I ran poller.php from the command line using sudo and the wwwrun user (Apache) and got results for a few of the localhost checks, followed by lots of lines of "Waiting on 1/1 pollers." and ending with:

Code: Select all

01/30/2007 11:47:52 PM - POLLER: Poller[0] Maximum runtime of 292 seconds exceeded. Exiting.
01/30/2007 11:47:52 PM - SYSTEM STATS: Time:293.4544 Method:cmd.php Processes:1 Threads:N/A Hosts:4 HostsPerProcess:4 DataSources:20 RRDsProcessed:4

Warning: pclose(): 56 is not a valid stream resource in /srv/www/htdocs/admin/cacti/lib/rrd.php on line 48

When I click "Rebuilt Poller Cache", there is still nothing for the Interface data sources on either device.

In cacti.log (poller set to debug level) I have a few things that stood out:

Code: Select all

01/31/2007 12:03:38 AM - CMDPHP: Poller[0] ERROR: SQL Assoc Failed "select   snmp_query_graph_rrd.snmp_field_name,   data_template_rrd.id as data_template_rrd_id   from (snmp_query_graph_rrd,data_template_rrd)   where snmp_query_graph_rrd.data_template_rrd_id=data_template_rrd.local_data_template_rrd_id   and snmp_query_graph_rrd.snmp_query_graph_id=   and snmp_query_graph_rrd.data_template_id=41   and data_template_rrd.local_data_id=67"

... and a few more like that...
Those are really the only ones that stood out... other than the *complete lack* or *any* reference to the device names "EXT1" and "SW1".

I also read the section on debugging NaN's.

To simplify things, I removed the host "EXT1" so that I now have 1 working host (localhost) and 1 not working host (SW1). On SW1, I also removed all graphs and data queries other than the Interface Statistics data query and the Interface Traffic graph.

The two hosts I have are "localhost" with ID 1 and "SW1" with ID 9. I grepped the cacti.log for "Host[" but only came up with lines for "Host[1]", nothing for 9.

I just finished reading over *every* post relating to this since July 2006 and still haven't solved the problem.

The Device Status thing is perplexing me. I guess I'll need to start wading through the code.

SW1 is shown as status "unknown". It is in the Poller Cache. It is NOT showing up anywhere in the log - if I grep for "Host[9]" (the ID of SW1), I get nothing at all. A grep for "host[" shows only host[1] which is the localhost. If I manually run cmd.php as wwwrun, once again, I only get output about Host[1].

I understand from previous posts that graphs do not update (and therefore rrd's do not get generated) unless a host is OK. I have changed the Down Host Detection method from SNMP to Ping ans SNMP with no change. I have not tried ICMP, as cacti is running as wwwrun.

How do I get the host to become "up"? And how, exactly, do I determine where the problem is? As I said, there's NOTHING in the log files relating to this host ID #, though I do have data sources and graphs defined. I KNOW that the host is up, and that SNMP is working.

If *anyone* could please give me some advice, it would be greatly appreciated.

Status "unknown" is default for new devices. It will turn up if, and only if
- Downed Host Detection is successful (ICMP, UDP/TCP PING and/or SNMP) you may want to start using SNMP only. As long as all devices are SNMP enable, this will work fine for the last cacti releases.
- A Graph for this device has been created (verify from Utilities, poller cache)

Then switch to DEBUG mode as stated in my debugging howto and post the result of Host Detection for this device

Thanks for the reply. After 20+ hours of playing around with Cacti, I was starting to get discouraged.

Aside from localhost, both other hosts are SNMP-enabled, but I plan on adding some that aren't, with custom check scripts, in the future.

This morning, one of the devices in question changed to "up". I stopped making changes at 4:30 AM this morning, waited 20 minutes (4 poller cycles) and it was still unknown. When I checked back at noon today, it was "up" with no changes in between.

The current status is device "EXT1" unknown and device SW1 Up. There are graphs in the poller cache for SW1, and they are created, but I am getting the infamous rrd file not found error. I will post the debug output of the next poller cycle.

The host in question, SW1, has ID 9.

In the "devices" section, this device has no Graph Templates associated with it, because the "interface" templates are not in the list. I setup graphing by clicking "Create Graphs for this Host", selecting the appropriate Data Queries, and clicking on "Create". The graphs show up in Graph Management, but show the .rrd not found error. There are no .rrd files in rra/ for the host.

I weeded through the SQL debugging information and have pulled out everything that looks pertinent:

Well, this is ugly, I agree. Unfortunately, you won't see errors from rrdtool create with current cacti. Personally, I'd like to change the crontab entry to sth like

Code: Select all

*/5 * * * * /usr/bin/php /var/www/html/cacti/poller.php > /var/www/html/cacti/log/poller.log 2>&1

So you will find the missing errors of each run in ./log/poller.log. Or you may want to run those commands as user=cactiuser to see possible errors. Or login as cactiuser and run the poller manually.
Stuff like this should be part of my "Debugging HowTo" linked in my signature

Ok, I did as follows:
1) set logging to DEBUG
2) check that SW1 is up (yes)
3) Rebuild Poller Cache (done, showing SW1 in the cache)
4) log in as root
5)

Code: Select all

sudo -u wwwrun /usr/bin/php /srv/www/htdocs/admin/cacti/poller.php

(that is the correct path for my cacti)

The output was as follows:

It seems like the problem lies in:

Code: Select all

The graphs/data sources that I had defined for this source were a graph/DS for overall traffic, plus one for each active port. I remove all but the overall traffic from graphs and data sources, and rebuilt the cache, but it showed a duplicate of:

Code: Select all

SW1 - Traffic - 192.168.0.2/BayStack 450-24   	 SNMP Version: 1, Community: public, OID: .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16.1
	RRD: /srv/www/htdocs/admin/cacti/rra/sw1_traffic_in_78.rrd
SW1 - Traffic - 192.168.0.2/BayStack 450-24 	SNMP Version: 1, Community: public, OID: .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.1
	RRD: /srv/www/htdocs/admin/cacti/rra/sw1_traffic_in_78.rrd

I don't know if that may be a problem.

I (again) deleted all devices but localhost, and added SW1 with no host template. I then went into the device view, added a data source of "SNMP - Interface Statstics" which showed Success. I clicked "save" then clicked "Create Graphs for this Device", and under "Data Query" selected the Traffic for port 1, clicked "create" and rebuilt the poller cache. It is still showing:

Code: Select all

SW1 - Traffic - 192.168.0.2/BayStack 450-24   	 SNMP Version: 1, Community: public, OID: .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16.1

	RRD: /srv/www/htdocs/admin/cacti/rra/sw1_traffic_in_84.rrd

in the cache, and:
