[xefil]

Ok, I've solved.... the problem was this "/root/functions.php".
I've NO IDEA who is calling this file and WHY. Maybe this file was an old copy..... really strange.

BTW now it's solved, the poller starts very well

/root/functions.php ??

wow ... I wonder why that one was called/included ... need to check my sources ..

Did the php error log tell this ?

[xefil]

Yess, as you can see my post, previous page
I've posted the error, then take a look on them and find out. Best practice is to read the error FIRST and the post I know
I'll take a look to fino out WHERE this file is called, really strange!

[phalek]

ahh, didn't read that one

My guess is that one of the php files is including a functions.php file without putting the correct directory of that file, hence it gets included.

It's probably some left-over of a test/previous install or whatsoever.

For the plugin install. global.php is bein used for pre-PIA 2.x plugins.

nmidCreatePDF is Pia 2.x compliant and does not need to be included in the global.php file

Wonderful, now I can test this plugin out

thank's for the support!

Hi

First of all, thank you for providing such a nice tool, it is is definitely a must have.

I'm running on CentOS 5, installed cacti 0.8.7f and Oetiker's smokeping 2.4.2.
I downloaded and installed nmidSmokePing 0.3.9a to create smokeping grahs within cacti.

All along those installations, I ran into some problems that I always managed to solve somehow.
But I'm stuck on this one : I can't find the getSmokePingPath.pl file.
When clicking on a host associated with a smokeping graph, I get this message from apache error_log :

Code: Select all

[Thu Jul 01 13:13:58 2010] [error] [client xx.xx.xx.xx] script not found or unable to stat: /var/www/cgi-bin/getSmokePingPath.pl, referer: http://yy.yy.yy.yy/cacti/graph_view.php?action=tree&tree_id=12&leaf_id=80

I haven't found anything about it in the documentation or in the forum, Google doesn't give me much. However, somewhere in the forum Phalek said that the file is included in the 129 build, but I just can't find it

Code: Select all

[root@yy.yy.yy.yy cacti]# ll plugins/nmidSmokeping/
total 32
-rw-r--r-- 1 1000 users    44 jun 29  2009 index.php
-rw-r--r-- 1 1000 users 27894 aug 25  2009 setup.php

Any idea ?
Feel free to ask if you need specific details.

Thank you in advance

[phalek]

Yeah, install is quite a journey

I uploaded the file here:

http://redmine.nmid-plugins.de/projects ... ping/files

depending on which nmidWebService plugin you have, you will need to change the URL in the file to fit your needs. The url with "webservice_re.php" in it is for the > 0.8 Versions.

And it seems like I must have silently removed that file without even knowing it ...

Thank you Phalek, I'll let you know how it turns out

Hi Phalek,

I am now able to see the smoking graphs from the cacti tree, but only those who have similar entries in the smokeping config file.

I tried setting the same config file smokeping uses in nmidsmokeping's setup.php before reinstalling, but it just overwrites (fwrite) smokeping config file leaving it invalid (no header). I guess append the file wouldn't work either since it would generate duplicate entries in the config file... maybe a more complex method?

Is there a way for cacti to only modify the target section of the config file ?
If not, how could smokeping take into account new/updated entries in the nmidsmokeping's config file and modify its trees accordingly ?

Thanx

[phalek]

It's by desing that the nmidSmokePing plugin pny creates the target section.

The idea behind that is that you have two files, one lets say "smokeping.header" and the one created by nmidSmokeping ( i think called smokeping_nmid_spserver1_config.txt). You simply need to combine those two files.

There's an example of this in the nmid thread look here at the second post from me : http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t ... &start=255

Hi Phalek,

Thank you for the script, it's exactly what I needed. But it is unclear to me where I should insert the code : getGraph.pl, getSmokePingPath.pl or should I write the script as a file and call it in another one ?

[phalek]

The purpose of that script is to generate the target section of the smokeping config. getGraph.pl is just an add-on for displaying cacti graphs in other tools (e.g a portal) the getSmokePingGraph.pl file is the one responsible for displaying the graphs within cacti.

[kibo15]

All is fine now!! Thank you very much
