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

[jdmatt]

jdmatt, can you be a bit more specific on this ? What error do you see ?

Hi Phalek,

I'm using ionCube Loader version 4.0.12 for PHP 5.3 (installed using loader-wizard.php) on Ubuntu server 11.10. On the Plugin Management page all my plugins are there except for nmidCreatePDF. Thanks!

[phalek]

chmod +x nmidCreatePDF

[phalek]

Nevertheless, Version 1.80.40 has been released. Including free functionality of the Corporate Edition for up to 100 active data sources.

It can be downloaded here:

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

There's also an install guide for Ubuntu 11.10 64bit available

[jdmatt]

chmod +x nmidCreatePDF

What a predicament . I get this error when generating report:

FPDF error: Undefined font: B

Thanks!

[phalek]

download the mpdf reporting engine. You do not need to use it, but for some reason and some instances the FPDF engine throws this error when the mPDF engine does not exist.

The install guide describes how to install it.

Other than that: Check the Debug Info page and also have a look at this support forum entry: https://urbansoftware.zendesk.com/entri ... t-is-blank

Hi Phalek,

Got it working on v1.80 with nmid selected. How do I get the Corporate Edition functionality?

BTW, have minor issues below:

Required Cacti Plugins:
settings installed
Optional Cacti Plugins:
settings missing

Thanks!

[phalek]

Ignore the settings module. The check is malfunctioning for newer settings plugin ( needs fixing )

For the corporate functionality. YOu need to be below 100 active datasources. Then it is automatically activated. Once it's over that limit, it reverts back to the Express Edition.

You can check your number of DS with the following SQL statement:

Code: Select all

SELECT
  count(`data_local`.id) as DSCount
FROM
  `data_local`, `host`
WHERE
  `data_local`.host_id = `host`.id
AND 
  `host`.disabled != 'on'

Hy Phalek:

I have currently running 1.75.25 version, to upgrade do I just Copy over 1.80 ???

thanks

[phalek]

yep, just extract and overwrite the files and then click on the Cereus tab afterwards.

The debug info page should show "1.80.40" then.

Any plans of increasing this value . BTW, the logo is stucked on the upper part of the report, how do I adjust it. Thanks for the support!

[phalek]

I started with 100 DS, but its more of a guess than real science. I want the Corp Functionality be available to home users and small offices, like with an average network of 4 devices, a few servers and that's it. 100 DS is 50 interfaces (in+out traffic).

It can grow fast though.

The Logo can be adjusted by either changing it's size, or using the mPDF engine and playing around with the css layout ( nmidCreatePDF.css ).

If you had the Corp Functionality, you could just put the logo onto a plain PDF file and use it as a background. Look at the templates/TwistingTheWorldTemplate-P-A4.pdf file (and TwistingTheWorldTemplate.pdf.css) as an example.

How many DS do you have ?

[jdmatt]

Hi Phalek,

Noted on the logo. I have 343 DS . Thanks!

Hi,
I am looking to generate report which can tell me how much data is used on my cisco router in a month with daily breakdown in GB or TB. Can we get this using CereusReporting as we are charged per GB of Internet bandwidth we use?

[phalek]

Hi

No, It's only taking the Cacti graphs and puts them into a PDF as well as some SLA measuerment.

What you may look for is the following: http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=19887

Alternatively ReportIt may also be fine.
