snmp error?

Herminator · Post by **Herminator** » Mon Aug 22, 2005 12:00 pm

Here is my problem.
I installed everything by the manual.
When i run manually run poller.php at the command prompt it doesn't show errors but it won't put files in de rra directory so i won't show the images. Not even with the administrator account. So it isn't a security issue.

C:\cactid>c:\php\php.exe g:\www\cacti\poller.php
Content-type: text/html
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.8

<br><strong>This script is only meant to run at the command line.</strong>
C:\cactid>

This is when i run cactid with debug mode on.
I have installed net-snmp from here http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/ but it doens't respond. I don't understand why. How can i test if it works?

I suggest you use the Microsoft SNMP agent. You can use net-snmp snmpget or GetIF to test if snmp is working on the device.

PHP 4.4.0 is the latest, I suggest you upgrade.

No rrdfiles are being created, because cacti has not received any valid data (yet). You must run poller.php for this to happen. Only run cactid.exe for debugging purposes.

I have uninstalled net-snmp en installed the windows snmp
GetIF can't get an connecting with snmp

I have updated php to 4.4.0. I get this result.

Before you bother getting Cacti to try and collecting and data from that host, you will need getif or net-snmp snmpget to successfully get SNMP data.

Is there a firewall thats blocking the snmp traffic?

Herminator · Post by **Herminator** » Tue Aug 23, 2005 5:15 am

I have no firewall turned on.
I have everything installed on my local computer.

I have made these settings in my windows snmp service.
http://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg_tr ... 000xp1.htm

Still no response in getif and in smtputil.

I can't figure out why its not working.

[Edit]
My 2003 server works fine now over the network
It looks like the service on my local computer won't install correctly.
It says

On or more services for the snmp component took more than their alloted time to start. Installatation will continue, but services will not be available until they have started completely.
