Thold 2.x - Thresholding/Alerting module for cacti 8.6

[proxyo]

for John Le Lardon

you have to create a schedule task with crontab,
task repeat : 5 min
parameter: c:\php\php.exe c:\apache2\htdocs\cacti\thold\check-thold.exe
(for windows) with linux i don't know

in the php.ini file don't forget the ""

see in your threshold setting if all is ok...

test a capture with ethereal with a filter for your network adapter if there are anything go out of your PC and if a network equipment doesn't lock the mail...

Hope you will find the problem

in crontab it's okay :

Code: Select all

*/5 * * * * php /var/www/html/cacti/poller.php >/dev/null 2>&1 && php /var/www/html/cacti/thold/check-thold.php > /dev/null 2>&1

it's done in install docs

for php.ini like this ?

Code: Select all

sendmail_path = "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i"

i try with quote ... reguards :p

I got a problem with thold on Win32/PHP 4.3.3

poller.php was't stopping and saying waitting for x/N until timeout, after lot of debug i found why.

in lib/functions.php there is 2 call to mail() without a body

mail(read_config_option("alert_email"), $msg, "", "Content-Type: text/html\n");
mail(read_config_option("alert_email"), $msg, "", "Content-Type: text/html\n");

after some test i found that mail('toto@toto', 'some subject','') stop php without any error (and any mail sended), so the poller was waiting for a crashed process

I just changed the body to " " and now it work fine, it seems to be a bug in php 4.3.3 (at least) (work with 4.3.11, seems to be corrected in 4.3.4 from what i saw in changelog) so i guess it still better to change this in thold.

Hi all!

Can the author create a new post with new title cause i don't understand where we are in version and patchs of treshold ?? :p

I think it will be more visible to create new topic at each major version we do in our script.

[john le lardon]

yes i'm with you , make 2 post one for problems and one ( locked ) with annoncement of new patch and how to apply thanks .
if u can make an order to aply patch also

i think about "arch patch" but i have problem causing by the patch , evry time i try apply it evry time i can't add new device (the new device created have "" unknown "" "" "" "100%" after patching and can't save if i edit old device ) .

when i patch i get error :
patching file plugins/index.php
patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line
patch: **** malformed patch at line 307:

i'm on fedora core 3 , cacti 0.8.6d ,mysql Ver 11.18 Distrib 3.23.58

Message for aboyz,

I have seen the same error when tried to apply the patch, so i did the changes manually at thold-functions.php and it started to work properly.

Please replace your actuall file with this one which is already patched and works fine.

The error you got when you patched is fine, its because I chomped the last blank line off the patch. As far as the other, open include/plugins.php
find this code

Code: Select all

function do_hook_function($name,$parm=NULL) {
    global $plugin_hooks;
    $ret = '';

and change the

Code: Select all

    $ret = '';

to

Code: Select all

    $ret = $parm;

That should do the trick. I think I will create a new thread, so we can keep these out of the thold thread. I will post an updated patch also.

[sromines]

Same thing here.....it appears that thold is not reading the current value. I now have alerts for 50 devices since it is not reading it properly.


Anyone have any ideas??
