Pings - Cacti 1.1.27

[networkguy]

Hello,

We just built a new cacti server and I'm looking for the best way to graph latency to my remote routers. We previously ran a very old version of Cacti and used a template called "Advanced Ping" - it had a similar look and feel to SmokePing, this worked great. However on the new server, I get the error below when I try to use that same template:


2018/01/05 10:13:03 - CMDPHP PHP ERROR Backtrace: (/script_server.php: 223 call_user_func_array)(ss_fping)(/scripts/ss_fping.php: 72 split)(CactiErrorHandler)(/lib/functions.php: 4416 cacti_debug_backtrace)
2018/01/05 10:13:03 - ERROR PHP DEPRECATED: Function split() is deprecated in file: /var/www/html/cacti-1.1.27/scripts/ss_fping.php on line: 72


Are there any new templates that people would recommend to graph latency?

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

In this case, the primary issue is that split is now depreciated in PHP in favour of implode/explode:
http://php.net/manual/en/function.split.php

If you can link me to the template or scripts that you have, I can test out bringing it to the modern era but no promises I will succeed

I was just coming back to say that I figured it out, came to same conclusion you did - thanks for the feedback

Replaced two references of "split" with "explode" - works great now!
