Does nmidphpip plugin work for 8.8a?

Post by BoatingBot »

I'm trying to install a IP address management tool into Cacti since it's already set up on a windows machine with IIS. I've put the extracted files into my plugins folder and it this causes all my cacti console to disappear and the error "Can't open file".

What am I doing wrong? Any alternatives to IPAM software?

Hi

It will run with 0.8.8 but it's not truely compatible.

The error message actually refers to a file called "config.php" within the nmidPHPIP dir. It needs to be writeable.

If it's not there, create it and put this in it:

Code: Select all

<?php $nmidPhpip_tab = FALSE; ?>
save it and make it writeable by your webserver.

These are the errors generated from the log when I view the nmid phpip page. Troubleshooting with this information so far.

nmidPphIP requires some additiona code changes to the cacti sources.

http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=26242
http://bugs.cacti.net/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=1222

otherwise you will probably see only a "NMIDphpIP" link on the console :-(

Tried applying that patch, causes cacti to not load anything >.<. Man wish I knew PHP a bit more new to Cacti as well.

I suggest going for the "stand-alone" version of phpip for now: http://www.phpip.net/console.php

I'll probably integrate a newer IP management system to it. phpIP hasn't been developed for several years now.

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?
