Ubuntu 12.10 fresh install, missing flows plugin

Post by derr12 »

Hello, im just installign a fresh copy of 0.8.8a successfully on ubuntu server 12.10. All seemed to go as planned, I installed webmin, and then NTOP. Figured id have a go at Cacti's flowviewer plugin to compare features. I installed the plugin like normal, but when I go to the flows tab in cacti it goes to a completely blank page @ http://*myserverIP*/cacti/plugins/flowview/flowview.php

any suggestions?

Did you install cacti from this web-site or from Ubuntu's repository. In the later case, please read this README.Plugins which will be part of a next upload in Debian/Ubuntu.

I did read that, i found it in another thread. Im not sure it apply's in my current situation.

I did use the ubuntu repository, but all the directories are already in the right place.


*update;

I decided Wth, and tried creating the sym links anyways, since the directories were all there already. The flows page shows up properly now.
