[Syslog plugin + cacti] How install the plugin on 0.8.7e

[supportn2]

Hi !!

My configuration :
VM Redhat Enterprise 5 + cacti 0.8.7e

I want to install the syslog plugin in my cacti 0.8.7e but I never use cacti plugin. I follow this HowTo :
http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t ... c&start=15

I haven't got any problems with the syslog messages (ie. my logs are in the database), but I can't install the plugin on my cacti because I haven't got the "$plugins" tab in my include/global.php file. Is it normal ? I see that another person have the same problem at the third post before the end of the link above.

Regards

I made a mistake when I choose a category for this topic. Someone can move it ?
Thanks !!

Hi,

you need to install the "Plugin Architecture (PA)" first, just fire a search here in the forums. AFAIK it'll be included in 0.8.8, before that you need to install it manually.

After that you can add Plug-Ins via global.php or the newer ones by installing them with the GUI.

Kind regards,
