php scripts don't work with data input

[Fireball]

Hello, i have a little problem when i try to import data to cacti from a php script
cacti version 0.8.6j on a FC5


the script

Code: Select all

<?php
$no_http_headers = true;

/* display No errors */
error_reporting(E_ERROR);

include_once(dirname(__FILE__) . "/../include/config.php");

if (!isset($called_by_script_server)) {
                print call_user_func("ss_rand");
                }

function ss_rand() {
$nr=rand(1, 10);
return  $nr;
}

i tested the script in script_server.php with the comand line: <path_cacti>/scripts/ss_rand.php ss_rand

all good, it outputs random numbers.

my problem is that when i try to import the data in cacti nothing works.

error:

CMDPHP: Poller[0] Host[0] DS[73] WARNING: Result from SERVER not valid. Partial Result: WARNING: Function do
PHPSVR: Poller[0] WARNING: Function does not exist
PHPSVR: Poller[0] WARNING: PHP Script File to be included, does not exist

the data input method:

Input Type: Script server php
Input String: php <path_cacti>/scripts/ss_rand.php ss_rand

also tried with input type script command, still same error, am i doing something wrong ? and pls don't send me to how to's there's no php input example there and i don't know perl to make scripts but i can work my way around php.

Can anyone help me with my little problem?

Your debugging procedure was wrong. Please visit http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=7738 or see my signature links for some examples

ok, i've already look there, in the how to section only perl examples on data input, found one query example with smtp wich dosn;t help me much.

about my debuggind? can u give me a hint on what am i doing wrong?

i couldn't find any action: 2 to test the script server but if my file works in the scripts server without errors why do i need to test it?

Code: Select all

[root@xyz cacti]# php script_server.php
PHP Script Server has Started - Parent is cmd
/var/www/html/cacti/scripts/ss_rand.php ss_rand

/var/www/html/cacti/scripts/ss_rand.php ss_rand

Hmm, that is quite odd. It works fine for me. Do other script server scripts work?

yes i tried with ss_poller.php and worked ok in the server_script but when i try to import data from it i get same error

edit:
i can't run php scripts, i get error from all:
PHPSVR: Poller[0] WARNING: PHP Script File to be included, does not exist !

I've almost the same problem with php scripting.

This is the result of ss_poller.php runnig on the script_server:

c:\inetpub\wwwroot\cacti\scripts\ss_poller.php ss_poller
Time:2.4641 Method:cmd.php Processes:1 Threads:N/A Hosts:10 HostsPerProcess:10 DataSources:15 RRDsProcess
ed:8
^C

This are my script and the fping running on the script_server:

C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\cacti>php script_server.php
PHP Script Server has Started - Parent is cmd
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\cacti\scripts\ss_fping.php ss_fping 10.10.10.253

C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\cacti>php script_server.php
PHP Script Server has Started - Parent is cmd
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\cacti\scripts\ss_mem_conn.php ss_mem_conn 10.10.10.253

C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\cacti>

They just went out of the script_server....

But if I try to run the script without the script_server i've got back the right reply:

C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\cacti\scripts>php ss_fping.php 10.10.10.253
min:1.2800 avg:2.3850 max:6.9600 dev:2.0534 loss:0.0000

I was wondering.. WHY?!?!
