Poller not running

Post by Achea9 »

Hello All,

When does cacti Poller run for the first time after new installation? Do I have to run it from command line or be patient and wait for some time?

Do cacti-1.2.15 contain bug fixes of cacti-1.2.14?

Thanks and best Regards

This way:

cd /var/www/html/cacti
php poller.php --force --debug

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?

If you install Cacti from a package, the package usually sets up a Cron Job to run the poller. Typically its at a 5 minute interval. If you installed from source, you have to setup the cron job yourself.

And yes, as with every version increase, there are lots of bugs fixed.
