FIXED! thanx bulek

That setting in php.ini fixed the problem, it was Off, so setting it to on and restarting apache fixed it.

Thanks Bulek.

GPG Sig?

Hey Rax-

Can you MD5 sign the cacti downloads? I figure this will help to identify where the file corruption is occuring.

Another interesting thing....

I was checking my apache error log, and found an entry: File does not exist: /var/www/html/cacti/images/install_< When I searched install.php, I found the following at line 286: <p align="right"><input type="image" src="ima\ ges/install_<?if ($step==TOTAL_STEPS){?>finish<?}e...

Update

I downgraded to a lower version of Cacti, and still had the same problem.

I have run Cacti on RH 7.3 in the past without problems...so I am quite puzzled.

RE: Scalability issues...

That is what I ended up doing earlier today. I wrote a shell script that runs every four minutes and deletes then recreates the stats files. Although I could have done five minutes, but sometimes on a long running dns server I find ndc stats takes a while. Anyway, I have a sampling of dns traffic mo...

Working...one last question

Although I have not queried more than just PTR stats through the script, I have a question of implimentation and scalability. Say that a user wants to track errors in one RRD/graph, PTR and A in another, and NS/SOA in yet another. This would involve having multple data inputs to the same script, jus...

oops...fixed

Sorry, dumb error on my part....dunno how I missed it....oh well.

I think I know have one data source working. I was getting errors when using multple data sources, but I am going to see if I made the same error.

errors, questions...

ok, I took the script posted in this topic, modified it to delete the stats files before regenerating them, then I created a data input following the scripts requirements. At this point I setup a data input to use the script to fetch just PTR queries. When I call the script in the shell with the sam...

posted code....WONDERFUL!!

This script is awsome! Thanks for posting it, it does exactly what we need. I added to lines of code during my demoing of the script... the two lines are perl system() calls to delete the prexisting stats files prior to running the rest of the code. I hope you don't mind to much. Are you using this ...

BIND script

No problem, the script should be pretty easy to write provided that the data key is known. What I think I am going to do is write the script to handle arguements that are the data keys desired for graphing. There are so many different types of DNS queries, for example, that I want the script to fetc...

BIND monitoring, ndc stats key

I have a book that outlines and describes the different parts of the file, so that gets us over one hurdle. For a long time I had the same problem of seeing the named stats but not being able to decipher them. This book cleared it up for me.....granted the book is, in general, not written very well....

BIND 8/9 based DNS monitoring

Is anyone currently using Cacti to monitor Bind 8 or 9? If not, I am probably going to write an input script and release it to Rax for review so that everyone can make use it. The only RRDtool oriented dns monitor I have seen so far has been for ORCA and I am not sure if it is being maintained much ...

NetFlow, Cisco Routers, and Cacti

I have been using NetFlow with rrdtool and flowscan software written by Dave Plonka at UW Madison. I was just about to start a project to integrate NetFlow with Cacti either seperatly or through Cacti. I figured that it was going to need to be seperate because of all the different interworkings of n...
