Spine Compile Issues Here

[TheWitness]

Well, I can build now using the new ping.h and ping.c. The poller runs, but doesn't seem to be working completely. It is also timing out--the php poller came close, but could usually squeeze in under 5 min...

Unfortunately other projects are screaming for my attention right now, so I will have to slide this to the back burner for now. If I have a chance, I will post more details...

Did you try the 0.8.7a release?

Hello,

Did the FreeBSD problem get solved ?


I'm using cacti-0.8.7 and spine-0.8.7 (stable not SVN) and I'm getting with configure:

configure: WARNING: netinet/ip.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: netinet/ip.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: netinet/ip.h: see the Autoconf documentation

and after ./configure and make:

Is there any solution for this ?

We had a little server issue, so Ian was not able to perform the official release of 0.8.7a today.

I have 0.8.7a installed on FreeBSD 6.2 and it seems to be running fine now.

As we process rather a lot of data sources, it seemed necessary to allow a lot of concurrent poller processes and threads to get through under the 298s time limit. I had this set to about 10 pollers and 75 threads, figuring I would just throw them all out there and the kernel could handle the scheduling to complete so many tasks. I was busy and didn't really have the time to tune this.
It worked fine for a while, but the other day my load average suddenly doubled and would not come back down. I took some time to tune this down to about 5 pollers and 20 threads. It has not really impacted the amount of time required to complete the polling run, but has drastically lowered my server load averages.
Presumably spinning off so many threads all at once was creating an enormous log-jam that was taking longer to sort out than if all the "logs" were neatly filed out one or two a time. I would be curious to know if anyone else has some insights on that, or other tips for tuning/optimizing cacti installations. I thought there used to be a thread comparing poller run-times and system stats, but I can't find it now.

i got segmentation faults when trying to execute spine on my slackware 10.1

here's the debug :

Hi all, I have this error when runing autoconf (or autoreconf after):

configure.ac: required file `config/mkinstalldirs' not found
autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1

I read somewhere than we had to modify config/mkinstalldirs path, but I found it only in Makefile and Makefile.in, I try replacing it by all these path:

./usr/share/automake-1.4/mkinstalldirs
./usr/share/automake-1.5/mkinstalldirs
./usr/share/automake-1.6/mkinstalldirs
./usr/lib/rpm/mkinstalldirs

(result of find . -name mkinstalldirs) but nothing changed, same result... Does someone have any ideas?
Thanks!

Hello
I have also the problem with compile spine under Debian

configure: error:

*** [Gentoo] sanity check failed! ***
*** libtool.m4 and ltmain.sh have a version mismatch! ***
*** (libtool.m4 = 1.5.22, ltmain.sh = "1.5.22 Debian 1.5.22-4") ***

I have run libtoolize but the error is I can't compile it.

I forgot in the ltmain.sh is the version test exactly "1.5.22 Debian 1.5.22-4" and the Timestamp is also correct.
I have no idea where the fail is.

Hello,

just installed new cacti 0.8.7c instance (yay),

but having trouble with the current downloaded source for spine:

1) when I dl and extract to my OpenSUSE 10.1 box, configure script isn't executable

2) after chmod +x to configure, trying to run it gives me the following:

tools:/home/cvo/cacti-spine-0.8.7c # ./configure
./configure: line 3: syntax error near unexpected token `<<<'
./configure: line 3: `<<<<<<< .mine'


did I miss something? or was I supposed to patch the old spine source?
confused here, the INSTALL doc doesn't say much...

[gandalf]

This is a known problem. It should be fixed in SVN by now. Larry's going to release a new tar.gz soon
Reinhard

[ben_c]

After commenting out every single entry of .mine etc I am now getting this on compile

configure: error: cannot run /bin/sh config/config.sub

[GuessWho]

Rather than changing all the permissions in the install directory why don't you just run the bootstrap script. i.e.

./bootstrap

Worked for me and installed the binary and config file.
