The passwords were located at the last screen of the installer. You should pay more attention.

I changed the install path (since the Installed allowed it..) to C:\Cacti\, after editing the config files I've got a weird issue. Graphs arn't generated.

Cacti log shows nothing, the only bits of Info I get are from the Poller cache, which shows:
View Poller Cache [22 Items]
Data Source: 81.29.85.145 - Used Space - D: Label: Seri
RRD: C:\Cacti\Inetpub\wwwroot\cacti\rra\81_29_85_145_hdd_total_20.rrd
Action: 2, Script: C:\Cacti\Inetpub\wwwroot\cacti\scripts\ss_host_disk.php ss_host_disk 81.29.85.145 5 1:161:500:public:::MD5::[None] get total 3
Those files don't seem to get created.

Any thoughts?

The installer must have the root of the drive letter you want to install it on. This is because then it takes that initial path and bases all the other paths for php, cactid, rrdtool, mysql, and IIS off of it.

Maybe in time, the installer will allow you to specify separate paths for each component.

hrm. I seem to be experiencing the same problem when using the root of C, doesn't seem to be creating entries in the rra folder. Permissions seem correct.

Any ideas where I can look to debug ?

1) What OS?
2) Did you run the uninstaller before reinstalling?
3) Look in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\cacti\logs\ for additional logs that were created by the installer. Any errors in them?
4) Why did you edit the config files? It's already completely set up.
5) Did you restart the server after reinstalling cacti?
6) Go to Graph Mangement. Click on a graph. In the top right corner, enable Graph Debugging. Does rrdtool report an error?

1: Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition
2: yes
3: Nothing in there other than the default content.
4: I edited config files when trying to install in c:\Cacti\, not this time. Just a normal install
5: Yes
6: It does indeed, it reports
ERROR: opening 'C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/cacti/rra/81_29_85_144_cpu_14.rrd': No such file or directory


The file does not exist, full control has been granted to iusr, network service and iis_wpg.

Hrm, no permission denied issues. Though, I do get some seemingly incorrect file access.

Double check your path to rrdtool.exe in cacti, I bet it's invalid. You must specify the FULL path (i.e. c:\rrdtool\rrdtool.exe).

Make sure you also rebooted the server before trying to get cacti to work.

I checked to make sure that .dll file does exist and that the user account I'm logged in with has permissions for it. Any suggestions on what I can check? Thanks!
I'm experiencing the same problem. Each time the poller runs this message displays. I'm running it on a Win2003 Server.

Everything is running fine though except when in tree mode the graphs don't display. In Preview Mode and List Mode they display properly.

Run a chkdsk c: /f. Look in the event logs afterwards -- did it fix anything? Is the file actually in that location? What version does it say?

As documented on the last page of the installer which you did not read AND one of the windows installer download sites...
