Cacti Log #1

Many thanks for your script Stephen! Just trying to get it working on my raspberry pi :-)

Cacti default install is working OK and default graphs are working.

I currently have the lwrfenergy graph displaying OK, but with no entries. The cacti log file shows the following (repeats the three rows every 5 mins). Does it look like an obvious quick fix?

Hi Richard,

Nice to see someone using it! I've not seen that error before, so I might not be much help.

The bit that looks most interesting is the "partial result: U" bit in the second block.

When I wrote this I used wireshark a lot to sniff the packets, its just plain text sent over UDP so you can easily see the conversation between the wifilink and the PC. You may want to check that the response cacti gets from the WiFi link looks like the response cacti is expecting.

Beyond that make sure the year running cacti (www-data in Ubuntu) can wore to the directory where cacti puts its rrds.

They're the two most obvious things I can think of.

Thanks, presume that meant to say…

Beyond that make sure the year user running cacti (www-data in Ubuntu) can wore write to the directory where cacti puts its rrds

I’ll keep tinkering with it. Thanks again.

Yes, my apologies, I'm writing this on a mobile phone on a train.

The best thing you can probably do now is to use wireshark to watch the conversation between the WiFi link and cacti. I'm particularly interested in the big capital U after the incomplete response: perhaps the WiFi link is responding with something different...

Did you ever figure this out, i am having the same issue

stephenjirvine commented 10 years ago

No I didn't, unfortunately the PC I was using as a home server died a few months back and I haven't replaced it. On 24 Dec 2013 13:25, "adambarnett52" notifications@github.com wrote:

Ok. I ended up just using as a command/script from within cacti instead of a php script which worked.
