The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

CACTI's Poller is Not Running - Graphs Not Generating Graphing Data because No RRD files have been created via Poller

Asked by TheLank in Network Auditing Software, Network Analysis Software, Network Operations

Tags: cacti, can, continue

Hey All,
       I've been trying to get Cacti up and running for the past couple of days; I finally figured out as to why my devices were giving me an unknown status after running the debug on the device "*.rrd" file. The "*.rrd" files of which my devices need have not even been generated within the "RRA' directory and therefore Cacti can not generate graphing data. I'm so close to getting this working but when I attempt to run "php poller.php" via the "cacti" directory I get the following:


php /var/www/cacti/poller.php
Content-type: text/html
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.9

03/06/2007 07:12:24 AM - POLLER: Poller[0] ERROR: The path:  is invalid.  Can not continue

Can someone help me? I know that If I can get the poller up and running I will see the graphing data and the interface status will change to Up.

I checked the permissions of the rra/ directory if this helps as well:

[root@www ~]# ls -al /var/www/cacti/rra/
total 344
drwxr-xr-x   2 cacti cacti   4096 Mar  5 22:56 .
drwxr-xr-x  11 root  root    4096 Mar  6 07:09 ..

-rw-r--r--   1 cacti cacti  47840 Feb  3 20:30 localhost_mem_buffers_3.rrd
-rw-r--r--   1 cacti cacti  47840 Feb  3 20:30 localhost_mem_swap_4.rrd
-rw-r--r--   1 cacti cacti  47840 Feb  3 20:30 localhost_proc_7.rrd
-rw-r--r--   1 cacti cacti  47840 Feb  3 20:30 localhost_users_6.rrd
-rw-r--r--   1 cacti cacti      0 Oct  8 23:05 .placeholder

Can someone please offer me there knowledge in resolving this issue?
