Cannot start cacti through browser

[cgkevrek]

Dear friends,

I am a brnd new user of Cacti.
I ve tried to install it yesterday with no success on a virtual CentOs 6.4 64-bit server.
My problem is that when I tried to reload the apache server this is not happening.
Below you may see the output I am getting

[root@koras2 ~]# service httpd status
httpd is stopped

[root@koras2 ~]# service httpd start
Starting httpd: httpd: Syntax error on line 220 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 4 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf: Cannot load /etc/httpd/modules/libphp.so into server: /etc/httpd/modules/libphp.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Any ideas why is this happening? I followed step by step the installation guide.

regards

Harris

Something between httpd and php is in error. Either the so file is missing or the httpd.conf is broken. Not exactly a Cacti issue

probably yes.

something that i don't like is what i am getting when trying to see the php modules available.

#php -m

any ideas how to fix these warnings?

below you may see what is included in /etc/php.d directory

[root@koras2 php.d]# ls
curl.ini json.ini mysql.ini pdo_mysql.ini phar.ini sqlite3.ini
fileinfo.ini mysqli.ini pdo.ini pdo_sqlite.ini snmp.ini zip.ini

and for each file

[root@koras2 php.d]# more mysql.ini
; Enable mysql extension module
extension=mysql.so


I think there is something wrong here!

[cgkevrek]

anyway.
i think i found what went wrong and corrected it.
now when i am typing in a browser http://servername/cacti/
what i am getting is a list of the folder files and not a prompt to login and continue the installation.

any ideas on that?

Yeh, sure, you didn't enable php. Bug again, this is not really a cacti issue.
