Cacti stops updating graphs after upgrade to version 0.8.6j

Posted on January 31st, 2007 in General, Linux System Administration, Programming by Brandon

It turns out the latest update to Cacti, the popular SNMP and RRDTool graphing program, has a bug that makes it so graphs based on SNMP Data aren’t updated after upgrading.  The problem has to do with using the PHP “snmpgetnext” function, which is unimplemented in PHP 4. 

There is a discussion on Cacti’s forum at http://forums.cacti.net/about19199.html  where a developer posts a new ping.php that will resolve the problem.
