graphs not generating after upgrade

[grzeslaw]

Yeah, the situation is the same when using cmd.php. Still don't draw my graphs.

[gandalf]

And which one has been defined under "Settings"?

The same version 1.4.2

This is not correct unless you are running Cacti from SVN/trunk. Afficial Cacti releases do not yet support rrdtool-1.4.x

[grzeslaw]

so with wersion should I use?

[gandalf]

Perhaps I did not make myself clear enough.
Using rrdtool 1.4 is fine even with cacti 087. Cacti does not support the new features but will run fine (except for font usage).
But there is no rrdtool 1.4 setting under "Settings" yet! At best, you can set "RRDTool-1.3.x".
So either there is a misunderstanding or a mis-configuration

Ok, so As I wrote:

I use lastest cacti and cacti-spine and cacti-plugin in versions: 0.8.7e
The rrdtool is 1.3.9 from source. So it should be fine. but it isn't

[gandalf]

the same:

This error messages shows "wrong" escaping of ":". This would happen e.g. when your "Settings" screen shows the wrong "RRDTool Utility Version", e.g. "RRDTool-1.0.x".
Cacti would apply escaping sequence that matches "RRDTool-1.0.x", then which fails for "RRDTool-1.3.9". That's why I asked.

Soo you think, that is a problem with rrdtool versions?
Why do I need to install 1.0.X - this versions are veeeeeeeery old - last 1.0.X has 5years old! When i have the newest version of cacti-* why do I need so old version of rrdtool ?

I do not say to install old version.
It is fine to run any known version of rrdtool.
But the Cacti internally defined version number of rrdtool, to be found under "Settings -> RRDTool Utility Version" must match the running version of rrdtool in order to work.

Got it!

"Settings -> RRDTool Utility Version"
This option was not inscribed correctly, soo when I set it to 1.3,X (witch is my current realise), my eyes saw the graphs

BIG thanks for helping! Now all's clear
