Add --port option for MySQL #53

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I think we need a --port option as per the discussion here:

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
To fix this in our installation we changed all the Data Input Methods to look
something like this:

Input String
------------ 
<path_php_binary> -q <path_cacti>/scripts/ss_get_mysql_stats.php --host
<hostname>:<port> --items bd,be,bf,bi,bl,bn --user <username> --pass <password>

Input Fields
------------
hostname    2    Hostname    
port        3    Port   
username    4    Username 
password    5    Password

Port Input Field
----------------
Field [Input]: port
Friendly Name: Port

Then finally in all the Data Templates we did this:

Custom Data
-----------
Port 
[X] Use Per-Data Source Value (Ignore this Value)       [3306]

This means that when new graphs are created for a host the user will be 
prompted for
the port, but it will be pre-filled with the 3306 value, so they only need to 
type
something if it is different, otherwise they can just continue.

I hope this helps design this feature and implement it in future template 
releases.

The php scripts requires some changes to support port 3309. I have created 
about 95%
of the changes and have a functional script. However I'm not much of a coder and
don't know how to submit a patch properly. 

In addition I have a bug with my script that I'm still trying to work out.

here is my problem I can't work out, if anyone can help or point me in the 
correct
place, line 227 of the ss_php_mysql_stats.php

$conn = @mysql_connect($options['host'].':'.$port, $user, $pass);

I have modified the script so that the variable port shows up however this lines
doesn't format correctly when attempting to connect to the alternate mysql 
running on
the alternate port.

Attached are some new templates that have username / password / port can be 
changed
inside of cacti.  Also attached is the new working script that collects data on
alternate ports.

Hi!  thanks for the code changes to ss_get_mysql_stats.php.  The templates 
themselves
are not all that useful to contribute back to the project, since this project 
doesn't
really create templates -- there is code to auto-generate the templates.  What 
we
need to do is modify the template definitions.  I'll take a look at all of this 
now
and perhaps check something into Subversion in the next little bit.

This should be fixed in r212 through r218.

I have not tested an upgrade process, can you try it and let me know, and I'll
document the results?  If you are brave you can just re-import the template and 
copy
the new PHP file over.  Back up your database first!

Error: XML: Hash version does not exist.

hi friend, I finally import the template, but still, i can not get anything 
from the
graph, and the /tmp do not produce any temp file.  
Do you test this template with Cacti ? what version of cacti you use ?

The php file is good, i run php -q   ss_get_mysql_stats.php --item a1 -- ...
can give me the result, but still no graph, would you please check it ?

Thanks a lot.

I think you should follow the debugging process in the Cacti documentation to 
find
out where the problem is.

ok, thanks, 1 month ago , i also change the php code to let it work with 
no-default 
port, but to fix the template is too hard a work, and I see another topic you 
fix the 
issue of thread_cache_size 
http://www.xaprb.com/blog/2009/10/15/a-tip-when-upgrading-
mysql-cacti-templates/, is this template also fix it?

I will let you know what it goes on with my new try.

anyway, thanks a lot.

Baron,

Along a similar line, what would it take to sponsor the development of 
host-specific SSH tunneling for MySQL 
connections?
