CereusReporting - PDF Reports - 4.00 for Cacti 1.x out soon!

[lcor]

I found one mistake : during the installation, I've overwritten file cacti/lib/tree.php with your tree.php

I've restored my tree.php in order to try to solve my issue.
So I now have 2 files : my old cacti/lib/tree.php and your cacti/tree.php. Is it ok like this ?
I have no more errors in http error_log.

However I still can't create PDF reports
I create a report with nmidCreatePDF and add graps to this report.
Then I generate my pdf report, but the result is a file named \.pdf containing only "<b>FPDF error:</b> Undefined font: B"

Do you have any idea in order to help me please ?

[quote="phalek"]hm, there seems to be some problem with either cacti or the Pia. do you have other plugins installed which also may not, or whuch do work ?[/quote]

my other plugins are Thold and Settings...

[phalek]

you should try using the mpdf report engine available from urban-software.de. its under the download section of the corporate edition. download it and unzip the file to the ReportEngine dir. you can then change the engine in the nmid settings page

[phalek]

If needed we can also have a remote support session using teamviewer to thoroughly go thorugh and check the settings/installation ?

[lcor]

Sorry for the delay, I was really busy...

It's working now
I had a bad parameter in the settings.

A great thanks for your help, and for this plugin !!!

[phalek]

Great to know it's working now

Would you mind telling what bad parameter it was ? In case someone else does have the same error message as you had.

[lcor]

The field "PHP binary path" was empty in the nmid settings...

I have a new question : the archive management is not available for free version ? Because I don't have the item "Manage Archive" in the nmid menu (in the admin console ), I only have "Manage Reports".

[phalek]

Ahh, interesting error message then ...

Nevertheless Archiving is an additional Features for the Professional and Corporate Edition. Look at the very first post of this thread for the feature list.

[lcor]

ok thanks.
Can you tell me the prices of the pro and corporate versions please ?

Do you have the same kind of plugin for Nagios ?

[phalek]

For prices you can go here:

http://www.network-outsourcing.de/profe ... ition.html
and
http://www.network-outsourcing.de/corpo ... ition.html

click on the appropriate "Buy-Button" and you will see the prices in the currency you like.

I do have the nmidNagiosPNP plugin, which displays the Nagios graphs from the addon NagiosPNP within Cacti. For a more sophisticated integration, you should have a look at the NPC plugin: http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=25902

I'm starting a series of Screencasts to show some of the functionalities of the nmidCreatePDF report generation plugin.

The first one here shows how to create a "Graph Report" and adding some graphs to it:

How to create a Graph Report

[phalek]

I'm currently working on 0.9 which will have the following features:

• CSS Style support for Chapter, Title and Text and Graph Heading text ( Pro/Corporate Versions only )
• Template support. PDF Files can be used as teamplates ( e.g. custom header/footer desing, background )( Pro/Corporate Versions only )
• ReportEngine update to 4.5
• Bugfix for HTML Report
• Enhanced Troubleshooting/Debug support

The first 2 reports are blank



LA

[phalek]

THey are supposed to. These are the templates used for the "Test" reports.

Like:

Code: Select all

Template + Data = Report

The templates can be custom designed using your favourite PDF capable editor ( e.g. OpenOffice or TextMaker ) and will be filled with the graphs on-the-fly resulting in the attached "Test" reports.

oohh , sorry not procssing well today.
