cannot add graph in weathermap was working fine

[anmomin1]

Hi Howie,

The savior... need help.. all of the sudden I can't add map .. and getting following error:

/var/log/httpd/error_log
[error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] PHP Warning: fgets() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /var/www/cacti/plugins/weathermap/weathermap-cacti-plugin-mgmt.php on line 861, referer: http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/cacti/plugins/we ... n-mgmt.php


Weathermap version 0.98
PHP Version 5.3.3
PHP OS Linux
Cacti Version 0.8.8h
Cacti OS unix
SNMP Version NET-SNMP version: 5.5
RRDTool Version RRDTool 1.3.x

I had all graphs working don't want to recreate them again.. not sure what happened that caused above error.

[Howie]

It thinks the file doesn't exist (or at least it couldn't open it).

What are the permissions for the file? Is it readable by the web server user?

[netniV]

Code should be checking for a false, but a false does normally mean that either the path is invalid or you have no access to that resource.

[Howie]

Yep - the error checking could definitely be better (I thought it used is_readable() in the calling function actually), and so could the error message, but the cause seems to be either permissions (or possibly selinux).

If it's just for this one map, most likely permissions.

Thanks guys for response...
I have cacti cacti owning there directory
with chmod 777 ( i know it's not preferred) but that's the only way i can get my cacti to work...
Also I have added apache user to cacti group...
uid=48(apache) gid=48(apache) groups=48(apache),1000(cacti)

so that i don't need to change ownership...

It was working fine.. and current maps are update and working fine.. it's just when I try to add that's where it run into the issue...

[anmomin1]

JUst to clarify... when I click or ADD that's where I get hour glass it doesn't take me to list of maps at all...
and when I do tail -f error.log it crazy filling logs that eventually cacti died ..
then I need to remove error.log and restart httpd service to bring service back on...

Please check attached file...

Issue resolved...
Thanks Guys...

I found ownership were changed for files in /configs folder... Not sure the reason...

I am running into another issue with weathermap ,, when other user (other than admin) access weathermap they can see map without any issue,,, but when they mouse over to see graph it doesn't load...
what I am missing now,,

THanks.

[Howie]

They need to have permission in Cacti to see the graphs too. Do they?

[Howie]

Are you saying you have a 300MB error log of just this message over and over?

Code: Select all

[error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] PHP Warning: fgets() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /var/www/cacti/plugins/weathermap/weathermap-cacti-plugin-mgmt.php on line 861, referer: http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/cacti/plugins/we ... n-mgmt.php

[Howie]

Also, it seems like you have found a bug if non-admin users can see the maps in the list above, since they are all accessible by admin only!

[netniV]

Unless he was the admin?

[anmomin1]

That got resolve after I fixed owndership on file under /configs .

Hi Howie,,,

I have allowed user to view map..
they can see map.. but mouse over to see graph doesn't load..

Not sure what I am missing,, Please check attached file

[Howie]

Does the user have permission in Cacti to view those graphs?

That is, if they clicked on the Graphs tab, can they see the same graphs?

All weathermap does is put an <IMG> tag in a box, with the Cacti graph URL in it.

[anmomin1]

Thanks Howie you the man,,
I deleted and recreate user.. and issue got fixed.. I made sure that user has graph access...

I have one graph that is 187% and I am getting following in my logs also warning sign on that map:
