If you are running native Cacti and are afraid of performing a full upgrade, upgrade only <path_cacti>/cmd.php from the 0.8.6j distribution. If you are running cactid, you need to pull the BRANCH_0_8_6 SVN.

Since you are running the CGI verion of PHP, you need those patches. I discovered this while testing CGI some time ago. I was shocked that I had not seen this earlier.

I'll go ahead and upgrade to 0.8.6j when I get back in the office. Is there anything that I shouldn't overwrite when I apply the upgrade?

Thanks

Just do the three patches right away. If you are using the Plugin Architecture, the patches may not work 100%.

I'm using cmd.php as my poller method.

I went ahead and applied the 4 patches that were available for 0.8.6i and also replaced my cmd.php file with the one from 0.8.6j. Just for kicks, I then deleted one of my devices that's having the problem and recreated it. Now, the graphs for the D drive and virtual memory work, but C drive and physical memory do not. This is a bit strange.

I am going to try to upgrade to 0.8.6j sometime today. I'll let you know how it goes.

Thanks

OK, I applied 0.8.6j today and the 3 patches. There was no change with my problem graphs right away so I deleted just the 3 graphs instead of the whole device this time and recreated them. Oddly enough, 2 of the graphs now work but one still does not.

Is there any other information I can provide to you that will help you help me? :)

Thanks
