Strange Graphs issue

thirty2 · Post by **thirty2** » Thu Aug 06, 2015 8:32 am

Hello all,

i have issue like that >

My Interface - Traffic graph template is not working, but it is working when i have tried this:

In the Console / Templates / Graph Templates i have copied the template Interface - Traffic (bits/sec) to Interface - Traffic (bits/sec) (1).

Then i selected one of my device, went to Graph List, select the graph. Then i have changed the Graph template to Interface - Traffic (bits/sec) (1).. See picture.

Graph start working. Then i have changed it back to Interface - Traffic (bits/sec) and graphs are still working.

Do you have any idea where can be a problem? I have more then 2500 graphs with this template so it will be really hard work to change it like this way

Thanks

Lets start by troubleshooting why it doesn't work to begin with.
enabled graph debugging?
errors in cacti.log?

Debug mode says > ERROR: String ends after the = sign on 'CDEF:cdefb='
But when i changed it to Interface - Traffic (bits/sec) to Interface - Traffic (bits/sec) (1). and then back to Interface - Traffic (bits/sec) to Interface - Traffic (bits/sec) it is ok.

From logs i have this error > ERROR: Problems parsing Multi SNMP OID!

Can be the ERROR: Problems parsing Multi SNMP OID! fixed in some way?

Thanks

two separate and unrelated errors.

post the full graph debug output before and after switching graph templates.
Are all the data sources assigned in the dropdown for a device/graph which is exhibiting this problem? They need to be.

The Problems parsing Multi SNMP OID error -- using spine or cmd.php poller? For what script/template is the error getting logged? something that's stock in Cacti or one you got from the forum?

Yes, data sources are assigned.

What cacti version?

Per the error, notice the two blank entries?
CDEF:cdefb=''
CDEF:cdefh=''

both of these are missing in the 'fixed' graph template. Probably have extra unassigned items in the graph template which you/an imported template modified. edit the graph template and compare against a functional template to see what the differences are...

Cacti v. 0.8.8c. I am using this version on few servers. Problem is only with one.

Yes, i see the missing CDEF. But when i change graph template to (1) and then back to orginal graph template the CDEF is not missing.

I also have checked both template in Console/Template/Graph Templates and they are the same.

Thanks

Lots of issues/security bugs fixed since 0.8.8f, I'd suggest you upgrade.

please post screenshots of the graph templates before and after you make the change, including the graph debugging output. attachments to the forum are ideal.

Yes, i am thinking about 0.8.8f. But when will be 0.8.8g released?

Output from debug is above.

How can i post the screenshot of graph template if it is a long code?

Thanks

Not sure. When it's ready and the devs have time for a release

Just a screenshot of the graph and the items will be fine. can copy/paste the graph debug output into a CODE block.
