[XML] SquidStats version 0.1 (cacti 0.8.5 only!!!)

[m_o_d]

Hello
I use squidstats in cacti for one w3cache server and its great
But when i added more w3cache server to cacti the new server had status down
I have Data Queries and ping to server.

Any one know what do tu change status ?


PS.
Cacti 0.8.6c
Squid snmp port 3401
And for the first w3cache server status is up

Data sources are required unless you are using cactid. There is a subtile difference between the two poller implementations that dates my involvement with the project.

Oh well, it seems to work now. Turns out the XML files weren't in the snmp_queries directory for some reason.

[David Rickard]

Scratch that. Not working :(

Its failing to ping the server and so not creating the RRD files. I don't want to use the proxy method because there are three servers (possibly 5) I want to watch with this, so it could get incredibly messy otherwise. It didn't seem to want to talk to itself anyway.

Is there a way around this?

[David Rickard]

Anybody?

David,

Please e-mail me a full writeup on what your problem is and what you would like to do. I might be able to help.

Did anyone try this with 0.8.6h ? Is it working ok ?

I think there isn't any new version of it...didn't find any

Thank you

I'm trying to import the 0.1 templates into my 0.8.6g installation and I get the following error:

Code: Select all

Notice: Only variable references should be returned by reference in /usr/local/apache/htdocs/cacti-0.8.6g/lib/import.php on line 44

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /usr/local/apache/htdocs/cacti-0.8.6g/lib/import.php:44) in /usr/local/apache/htdocs/cacti-0.8.6g/templates_import.php on line 67

Is there a later export I can use?

When I add the "client request rate" template to an existing device (host), I get the following error:

Code: Select all

ERROR: invalid rpn expression 'b,a,LT,0,b,a,-,IF'

Ok, I upgraded to rrdtool 1.2.12 (rrdtool-1.2.12-1.2.el4 rpm by dag wieers) but now I get this error:

This is a knows issue with rrdtool-1.0.x versus 1.2.x The later needs "more" escaping of colons compared to the former. To cope with that, please switch the cacti Settings for rrdtool utility version to rrdtool-1.2.x

Unfortunately I had to switch back to 1.0 as with 1.2 (and yes, I did tell cacti to use rrdtool 1;2 syntax in the settings menu) I didn't get any graphs anymore.

[gandalf]

Oh, sorry, you're quite right. I've missed something from your previous posting. It was so obvious! The graph statement does not contain any data source! This would be a line with a DEF= statement on it. And the AREA/LINEx statements would contain a reference to those DEFs (or to CDEFs which in turn would reference the DEFs). Did you got any errors while importing the templates? They seem to be broken ...
