Cacti 8.8h-Flowview 1.3

[mwance]

Hello to all, new to the forum.

I am having trouble with configuration of flowview. Cacti is installed on a Windows server 2012, new install of OS. Per the documentation, I enabled the flowview plugin version 1.3 that came in the MSI installer.

In the attempts to configure flowview and view, I get the error of: Can Not Find the Flow-Cat binary at /usr/bin, please check your flowtools path settings.

Clicking on the provided Link and selecting the Misc tab, the following shows
Flow tools Binary Path = /usr/bin
Flow tools Work Directory=Temp (I created this directory)
Flows Directory=/var/flows/myrouter

What path should be set for the 1st and third entry above?

Hi all,

I have the same trouble...

"Can not find the 'flow-cat' binary at '/usr/bin', please check your Flowtools Path Setting! "

I use cacti 8.8f instaled over a QNAP Nas server - running as docker soluction: "quantumobject/docker-cacti:latest"
Another plugins works fine...

Looking in logs records:

07/18/2016 11:22:13 AM - CMDPHP: Poller[0] ERROR: A DB Exec Failed!, Error:'1364', SQL:"INSERT INTO plugin_db_changes (plugin, `table`, method) VALUES ('flowview', 'plugin_flowview_ports', 'create')'

Nor are the files in the directory "bin" (flow- *)

All the paths seems correct:

/usr/bin
/tmp
/var/netflow/flows/completed

have to be an instalation error... i supouse

Thanks

Did you install flow-tools? It doesn't come with the plugin, and is a separate package for your Linux Distro that you will have to install yourself.
