really? I must look into that then. If so it would solve all the WMI problems...

Thank you guys for your replies. I really am new to the whole Linux scene... Do you by any chance know where I can find some sort of guide how to compile things in Centos? Thank you.

<erm> I think I posted what I did above....

Although make sure you back everything up (make copies) before you do anything - I have to admit to using Webmin to do most file operations...

Claymen, great job thanks for sharing.

I use all the scripts fine but the IIS will only display NAN.

Whenever i try the IIS scripts i get a time out error:
cacti# /usr/bin/php -q /usr/share/cacti/site/scripts/wmi.php -h '10.130.16.187' -u '/etc/cacti/cactiwmi.pw' -w 'Win32_PerfRawData_W3SVC_WebService' -n '' -k 'Name' -v '_Total' -c 'CurrentConnections,CurrentNonAnonymousUsers,CurrentAnonymousUsers,ConnectionAttemptsPersec,AnonymousUsersPersec,NonAnonymousUsersPersec,LogonAttemptsPersec'
NTSTATUS: NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT - NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT

cacti# /usr/bin/php -q /usr/share/cacti/site/scripts/wmi.php -h '10.130.16.187' -u '/etc/cacti/cactiwmi.pw' -w 'Win32_PerfRawData_W3SVC_WebService' -n '' -k 'Name' -v '_Total' -c 'CopyRequestsPersec,DeleteRequestsPersec,GetRequestsPersec,HeadRequestsPersec,LockRequestsPersec,MkcolRequestsPersec,MoveRequestsPersec,OptionsRequestsPersec,OtherRequestMethodsPersec,PostRequestsPersec,PropfindRequestsPersec,ProppatchRequestsPersec,PutRequestsPersec,SearchRequestsPersec,TraceRequestsPersec,UnlockRequestsPersec'

Any ideas?

That could be a bunch of issues.

Here are the main things to check
1. Log onto the box run scriptomatic and see if the WMI classes for IIS even exist (makes sure the counters are even there for wmi)
2. Try and query them make sure data comes back locally (makes sure the perf counters respond)
3. Test running the same query remotely (from another windows box) but running as your cacti.wmi credential (eliminates rpc firewalling and permission issues)

The WMI Classes exist.

I have ran scriptomatic from the monitored server and i was able to run a query script (on Win32_PerfRawData_W3SVC_WebService).

I have ran scriptomatic from another host on the network to query the monitored server and i get the right values:
...
TotalISAPIExtensionRequests: 5277
TotalLockedErrors: 0
TotalLockRequests: 0
TotalLogonAttempts: 13642
TotalMethodRequests: 15495
TotalMethodRequestsPersec: 15495
TotalMkcolRequests: 0
TotalMoveRequests: 0
TotalNonAnonymousUsers: 0
TotalNotFoundErrors: 706
TotalOptionsRequests: 0
TotalOtherRequestMethods: 0
TotalPostRequests: 1251

Flip on debug and grab the wmic string that is being called.

E.g. call wmic manually without wmi.php and what do you get?

I am not sure i ran the command correctly but there it goes (this is the command i get in the debug mode):
/usr/bin/wmic -U % //-h "SELECT /etc/cacti/cactiwmi.pw FROM -u WHERE -w='Win32_PerfRawData_W3SVC_WebService'"
ERROR: dcom_create_object.
ERROR: Login to remote object.
NTSTATUS: NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT - NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT

Now if i run the command manually i can retrieve the values:
root@amsterdam-sm09:/usr/share/cacti/site/scripts# /usr/bin/wmic -U domain/admin%password //10.130.16.187 "SELECT * FROM Win32_PerfRawData_W3SVC_WebService"

Ok i messed up with the IIS templates and your script version so i have upgraded my templates and wmi.php to your RC1 version. I get a logon failure error now:
# /usr/bin/php -q /usr/share/cacti/site/scripts/wmi.php -h '10.130.16.187' -u '/etc/cacti/cactiwmi.pw' -w 'Win32_PerfRawData_W3SVC_WebService' -n '' -k 'Name' -v '_Total' -c 'CurrentConnections,CurrentNonAnonymousUsers,CurrentAnonymousUsers,ConnectionAttemptsPersec,AnonymousUsersPersec,NonAnonymousUsersPersec,LogonAttemptsPersec'
NTSTATUS: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE - Logon failure


Return code non-zero, debug mode enabled!

Can the cacti user access the cactiwmi.pw file?

Cause that's either the user doesn't have access or it can't read the file and fails.

root@amsterdam-sm09:~# chmod 777 /etc/cacti/cactiwmi.pw
root@amsterdam-sm09:~# /usr/bin/wmic --namespace='root\CIMV2' --authentication-file=/etc/cacti/cactiwmi.pw //10.130.16.187 "SELECT CurrentConnections,CurrentNonAnonymousUsers,CurrentAnonymousUsers,ConnectionAttemptsPersec,AnonymousUsersPersec,NonAnonymousUsersPersec,LogonAttemptsPersec FROM Win32_PerfRawData_W3SVC_WebService WHERE Name='_Total'"

Not sure what else I can say but its failing due to authentication

NTSTATUS: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE - Logon failure

Substitute a different user into cactiwmi.pw? you can try and debug further with the wmic command by adding -d2/-d3 but can't see much extra comming of it.

I am lost the credentials in the password file are ok i have tested them from the command line.

Besides now that i have upgraded templates and wmi.php to the RC1 one none of the old graphs are generating data anymore (i thought this was compatible...), old graphs seem to have issues with credential:
root@amsterdam-sm09:~# /usr/bin/php -q /usr/share/cacti/site/scripts/wmi.php -h '10.130.16.187' -u 'credential' -w 'Win32_PerfRawData_PerfDisk_LogicalDisk' -n '' -k 'Name' -v 'D\:' -c 'DiskWritesPersec,DiskWriteBytesPersec,DiskReadsPersec,DiskReadBytesPersec,CurrentDiskQueueLength'
Password for [WORKGROUP\root]:

Why is it asking for WORKGROUP\root whereas i have kept the wmi-logins.php file?

I'm sure I mentioned it but the credential needs to be updated on the old data sources you are using to be a path to the cactiwmi.pw file. Backwards compatibility extends in every other way but you must update the credential portion.

Strange i have recreated the pw file to another location (under /usr/share/cacti/site/scripts as i run ubuntu) and now it works...

Anyways, thanks for your time on this.
