This is an environment problem. For now, add the following to the cmd_rt.php

Code: Select all

setenv("MIBS", "<some_known_file>");

Where <some_known_file> is a known good mib file that is locatable by SNMP. This, by the way is a packaging/build problem.

If you shell out and run "php -m" you should get the same warnings.

HI:

I put "setenv("MIBS", "IF-MIB");" in cmd_rt.php , but now I have no files in my rcache folder.

Is it OK what I put or not?, or could you send me the exact line I have to put?
By the way, my cacti server is windows 2003 SP 2....

thanks.

You need to make sure that "php -m" run cleanly. The setenv is just a work around for a botched environment.

Apparently all is OK, but when I put the line "setenv" the rrd file is not generated in "rcache" folder. (without "setenv" the rrd file is generated there, but as I told you I can not see the image, seems like is loading and loading...).

thanks

Sorry,

The syntax for setenv(), is really putenv("VARIABLE=value");

Try that instead, my bad...

hI:
I tried putting this in cmd_rt.php:
putenv("MIBS=IF-MIB"); It doesn't work,
then:
putenv("MIBS="); It doesn't work,
putenv("MIBS"); It doesn't work,

is it oK? ...... I put it in the first line of cmd_rt.php...

thanks

You may also have to specify the mibdir as well. It think the environment variable is "MIBDIRS=<location where your mibs are>". Then, the "MIBS=rfc-1215" will typically work. Sometimes I just "hate" windows' implementation of the php_snmp module.

Hi Joseme.

I have been fighting during some time against a similar problem with this plugin in a recent Windows installation, and finally I got that, in my case, the reason was a known "bug" in the "libmysql.dll" library on the latests PHP's Windows versions.

http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=41350&edit=1

It has happened to me with PHP 5.2.3 and 5.2.6. As far as I can see you're using 5.2.9, so you're likely to be affected by the same bug.

The way to test this is easy. Simply open a command line and execute "php -v". You should obtain a message with your PHP version, but if you detect that there is a big delay to exit the script after the info is printed (maybe even several seconds), then you've the same problem that I had. Depending of the PHP version sometimes you can obtain the following error (but not always):

C:\cacti>php.exe -v
PHP 5.2.3 (cli) (built: May 31 2007 09:37:22)
Copyright (c) 1997-2007 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2007 Zend Technologies
Error in my_thread_global_end(): 1 threads didn't exit

The solution is simple:
a) Downgrade your PHP installation to 5.2.1.
or b) Simply download this PHP version, extract it and replace your current "libmysql.dll" file by the one from here. This solved my problem and now my "realtime" works smoothly (I'm using PHP 5.2.6).

Here is a link to download the "old" Win PHP 5.2.1 package:

Hope this helps. Have luck.

Here's a patch for some changes to the way images are loaded.

It uses an offscreen img to load the new graph, and copies it to the visible one when the image has *finished* loading. It also only shows the loading bar when the settings have changed.

The result is no flickering in the popup graph.

Works for me in Firefox 3.5, IE7 and Chrome.

What's new? There's no changelog.

[TheWitness]

Mainly removed that nasty rotating candystick, the other was to size the window more precisely. Not much. Basically what you did, but maybe differently. Not sure, I did not check your patch.
