NO. The instructions on the first page and installer both tell you it is not supported.

Follow the standard cacti upgrade instructions. http://www.cacti.net/downloads/docs/html/upgrade.html

It's the 'standard' location NSIS puts the uninstaller application. It could go somewhere else... but where? It surely doesn't belong in the Cacti website folder nor off the root of the partition.

Hello,

I just install the newest installer on Windows 2003 Server, I choose to run Apache instead of IIS. Everything looks fine.

After reboot, I open web browser and type
http://localhost:8888/ --> it works.
http://localhost:8888/cacti --> HTTP 500 Internal Server error

Your post check-list does not mention how to check the Apache server.

Moreso, I see this error log in php:

[15-Sep-2009 04:52:17] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function api_plugin_hook() in C:\Apache2\htdocs\cacti\include\global_arrays.php on line 650
[15-Sep-2009 04:57:44] PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\php\ext\php_mysql.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found.

in Unknown on line 0

[15-Sep-2009 04:57:44] PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\php\ext\php_mysql.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found.

in Unknown on line 0

Please help.

Thanks
Tung

1) run a chkdsk c: /f and reboot
2) turn off friendly http error messages in IE or use a better browser to see what the real issue is. Consult the apache log files too.
3) attach the cacti-installer.log file so I can review it.

Cannot find MIB modules while running scheduled cacti task

Post by dschuitvlot »

Hello,

I succeeded in installing via the installer (newest version). When im running the cacti scheduled task im hitting the following issue:

Cannot find module (IP-MIB): At line 0 in (none)
Cannot find module (IF-MIB): At line 0 in (none)
Cannot find module (TCP-MIB): At line 0 in (none)
Cannot find module (UDP-MIB): At line 0 in (none)
Cannot find module (SNMPv2-MIB): At line 0 in (none)
Cannot find module (SNMPv2-SMI): At line 0 in (none)

Cannot find module (SNMP-USER-BASED-SM-MIB): At line 0 in (none)
Cannot find module (SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB): At line 0 in (none)
Cannot find module (SNMPv2-TM): At line 0 in (none)

Now, I've searched a bit (a whole day) to check what is wrong and i cannot find a working solution.

The first thing I noticed was that my Modules are not in C:/php/ext as the poller should expect. I also tried to check where I can find the modules. Those i cannot find anywhere!!

command php -m shows that the modules are installed, (mysql, snmp etc)

[PHP Modules]

Please help me out with this issue as im getting very confused :( :(
If more info is needed, i be glad to provide.

Please use beginners-language as i'm a total CACTI-noob.

THANKS!

Fixed by moving modules from snmp directory to php/ext.

Issue solved, and all is working :)

Cannot login to cacti after running the windows installer

Post by digital2k9 »

I tried rebooting afterwards, and tried default login (admin/admin) and also a few other common ones (cactiuser/cactipw) but I still can't seem to login. Any ideas? Thanks in advance

EDIT: n/m, I missed the last step in the installation (admin/cactipw)

minhcorp: did you follow the post installation steps/guide? Did you create items for each device in cacti?

Greetings, thank you for the install package it's fantastic to get up and running quickly.

Just a quick query, ive installed the latest package 0.8.7e on a Windows 2003 server, im currently monitoring 26 hosts and using cmd.php to poll each one, i would like to move to Spine however when changing the Spine under the poller option Cacti stops creating RRD files. Everything is working without issue when using cmd.php, i have graphs and RRD files.

Ive had a look arround but cant find a similar problem, there arnt any errors in the Windows event log and the Cacti log file states the following.

Using Spine

10/02/2009 03:20:08 PM - SYSTEM STATS: Time:8.3310 Method:spine Processes:5 Threads:5 Hosts:26 HostsPerProcess:6 DataSources:687 RRDsProcessed:0

Using CMD.php

10/02/2009 03:25:18 PM - SYSTEM STATS: Time:17.6008 Method:cmd.php Processes:5 Threads:N/A Hosts:26 HostsPerProcess:6 DataSources:687 RRDsProcessed:391

Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Regards

Thank you for your reply, upon closer inspection it appears that im running Spine v0.8.7c, it does come back saying that the hosts are all down though.

10/02/2009 10:52:55 PM - SPINE: Poller[0] Host[31] Hostname[10.171.40.1] ERROR: HOST EVENT: Host is DOWN Message: ICMP: Ping timed out

Ill try installing the updated package and see how i get on.


Edit: WIN! Backed up the existing configuration and updated to the latest installer version

10/02/2009 11:55:47 PM - SYSTEM STATS: Time:11.3045 Method:spine Processes:5 Threads:5 Hosts:25 HostsPerProcess:5 DataSources:656 RRDsProcessed:209

Thank you for your time.
