I am trying to install CACTI in Centos5.3. Now I am facing two problem. My DAG repository is not working and thats why i am not able to use YUM for CACTI....So i downloaded the cacti-0.8.7e.tar.gz and using this software according to following links
[URL]
But it is of no use ..so can somebody tell me about a tutorial through which i can install cacti without YUM ..IN addition to this if somebody has any clue of how to activate DAG repository in CENTOS 5.3 then i will be delighted.
I have installed Cacti 0.87e in fedora 11. And it is working fine. But as per our organizational requirement, they want report as pdf format. I have installed nmidcreate pdf also for the same. It generates the report in pdf format but the content of the pdf is blank i.e. it does not contain any graph or value in the report. It shows only header and footer information, nothing more than that. Kindly resolve this issue, either using the above mentioned plugin or other else. Because this is an urgent requirement. I am waiting for your affirmative response.

I am using CentOS 5.4 and did a yum install of cacti. I installed all the necessay packages, like net-snmp, php net snmp and all that. Everything else works but I can't for the life figure out how to monitor traffic on eth0. I do not have any SNMP Interface Statistics or alike in either the Associated Graph Templates or Associated Data Queries.
Heres the output of "snmpwalk localhost -c public -v2c" , SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr.0 = STRING: Linux xxx.xxxx.net 2.6.18-164.6.1.el5xen #1 SMP Tue Nov 3 17:53:47 EST 2009 i686

I am trying to monitor the interfaces on the local computer only.
I have apache and Cacti rpms installed and I see this error in the Apache log when accessing various menu items in cacti with this error:-
Does any one know where the setting is stored Rpms installed :-
Where to look for the configuration file which contains the incorrect setting /usr/share/cacti/cacti I suspect it should read /usr/share/cacti
I have just migrate from UBUNTU to Fedora 11. Tried to install cacti by 'yum install cacti' everything presumably went correctly. But when trying to get cacti running on a browser it's showing:
Code:
FATAL: Cannot connect to MySQL server on 'localhost'. Please make sure you have specified a valid MySQL database name in 'include/config.php'
Checked everything else including installing new mysqld-server (using yum install) and still not working.
Trying the installation steps from [URL], but could not find where mysql was installed. Mysqld should already be running, cos I can see it using webmin-server-mysql. Did a test as shown on [URL], everything seems ok. No major problem when using UBUNTU with apt-get install.
I downloaded template for cacti to make graphs from eth interface.is imported and showed in graph templates, but when I choose to creat new graph, it is not there.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI guess with major changes to syslog-ng, php-syslog going to licensing cost, and major overhaul to the syslog plugin with cacti - alot of documention was either disjointed, outdated or I just couldn't find it.this was performed on an 11.04 Ubuntu Server tall. I already had Cacti up and running and just needed to make it also a syslog collector.This guide assumes you already have mysql running, and cacti is already in place. If something looks wrong - please correct me. I am doing this from memory - trying to remember what all I had to do, and not a super admin.Required ubuntu install packages:libdbd-mysql syslog-ngcacti install packages:[URL]
Stop syslog-ng if you want. Changes should not take effect until you restart it.Should save the default syslog-ng configuration if you want to be safe. Below is the absolute minimum you need to get this working.Configuration on ubuntu is location in /etc/syslog/syslog-ng.conf Also make sure you fill in the proper username and password for mysql.
Code:
@version: 3.1
#Bare minimum syslog-ng configuration
[code]....
mention an example step by step procedure for adding a PLUGIN in Cacti. And also mention what does a PLUGIN serve in Cacti ? I am a newbie to cacti please consider my silly questions.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently installed Slackware Linux 13.1 , and my Wireless is down. I've only installed 3 Linux disto's on my main laptop (Ubuntu 9.10 , 10.04 , and Crunchbang Linux 9.04 , just had Crunchbang), and they all had the same problem. In all three , I was able to enable Windows Wireless drivers and every thing worked. Now , I'm assuming I have to the same ting in Slackware? Sorry , but I have no idea what my wireless card is. But I know that my laptop is a Dell Insprion E1705. One last thing , I did ifconfig and that wlan0 is my Wi-Fi interface. I typed ifconfig wlan0 up to see if that was the problem. After I did that , I got and error message. Then I typed ifconfig wlan0 down to see if it was down and it made wlan0 down. I tried bringing it up again , but I got an error saying it couldn't find the device specified. Also , how do I install XFCE? I really don't like KDE for some reason and would like to install XFCE. I chose XFCE over GNOME (my favorite) because I want to try something new.

I'm trying to install Puppy 525 on my Slackware 13.37 PC as a dual-boot using LILO. Puppy is living, all on it's own, in sda6, a 6 GiB partition. It got there by using the Puppy Universal Installer and selecting a 'Full' install, not a 'Frugal' install. I cannot find 'LILO' type instructions, only 'GRUB' type instructions.
Has anyone succeeded in doing a hard drive install of Puppy with the LILO boot loader?
Edit: I'll probably regret it, but I used Puppy's GRUB installer.

I'm interested in seeing what others are doing w.r.t. fonts in a standard Slack install. The 2 main apps I use are Firefox and Thunderbird and both look fairly poor out of the box. Previously I've used a combination of gtk-qt-engine and gnome-appearance-properties ( with a gsb install ) but this doesn't always do the 'right thing'.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe system requirements for ESET NOD32 Antivirus 4 for Linux are: Red Hat, Ubuntu, Debian, SUSE, Fedora, Mandriva, and most RPM and DEB Linux desktop distributions. Can this be installed on Slackware? I tried the download and install. Its says that after the install you need to reboot and an 'activate' application will start - it didn't. I used ESET in my prior Windows life and it was great so I thought, why not in my linux life!

1. Upgrade your kernel to 2.6.34
2. Get and install the driver:
Code:
git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/nouveau/xf86-video-nouveau/
cd xf86-video-nouveau
./autogen.sh
make

PS. There is no source tarball yet for this driver.If you want to upgrade:

What is the best way to install perl cpan modules in slackware?
i know that you can use 'cpan' and say 'install date::calc' but there is a perl-date-calc slackbuild on sbo. so which is the better way and why?
(Background: my wireless worked fine for a long time using wicd-1.6.2.1 and then all networks became hidden. The wicd website said there was a bug in 1.6.2.1 and to upgrade.) I obtained wicd-1.7.0.tar.bz2 from sourceforge.net. Slackware man pages recommend "installpkg <name>". I did "removepkg wicd..." and then install. Installpkg said it could not install it because it did not end in .tgz,.tbz,.tlz, or .txz. I changed the name to wicd-1.7.0.tbz(assuming that was equivalent) and did installpkg again. That gave "Verifying..., Installing..., Warning: package has not been created with 'makepkg'. Package wicd-1.7.0.tbz installed."
There is no entry for it in the Kickoff Application Launcher. There is an entry for it in /var/log/packages. There is in /etc/rc.d./rc.wicd a script marked executable. Can anyone see what got lost?
I wish to do a fresh install of Slackware without KDE. I could use my Slackware 13.1 DVD but I thought, why not give -current at try? Is there a -current ISO or must I install 13.1, without KDE, and then upgrade to -current? Or, is it possible to remove 'all things KDE' and then upgrade to -current?
