Lots of Cacti Documentation Stuff

Post by gandalf »

If you're tried searching my signature or need more advanced stuff, please visit my Cacti 0.8.7 HowTo.
At time of writing, a printout would bring you about 110 pages.

Please find Debugging HowTo included.

Suggestions on improvements, corrections, new documentation requests are always welcome.

In fact, the docs were created on a Fedora system.
So I'm not aware of anything that won't work. Please point out your problem to hopefully improve the documentation.

Andrew,

What version of CentOS are you using? Also, 32 or 64 bit?

Thanks,

Do you need help setting up on CentOS? I, too, run CentOS (5.x - 64-bit).

Found a series of excellent links to load Cacti 0.8.7i onto CentOS 6.2 32 bit. If running 64 bit change wget in step #3 to:

[root@centos]# wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm

Do this first: http://www.ehowstuff.com/how-to-install ... entos-6-2/
Do this second: http://www.ehowstuff.com/how-to-install ... epository/

On the second page at step 7 to modify the following:

<Directory /usr/share/cacti/>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Directory>

vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/cacti.conf

Finally, remove the comment the polling from vi /etc/cron.d/cacti
