Hi,

I'm having a rather torrid time with Cacti on my Ubuntu 6.06 server box.

I've installed cacti as per the instructions on help.ubuntu.com. It all works fine, I can log in, create graphs etc.

However, I have this error "SNMP not in use" and have no idea on how to try and fix this. I've reinstalled php-snmp which went on without errors. After a lengthy Google I’ve got really come up with anything to solve this problem.

Any tips on how to fix this or get the error message logs would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jon

Few things to check:
- the SNMP arguments like community and pass are set,
- SNMP is running on the host to monitor,
- firewall on either side blocking SNMP requests,
- elicit a response with "snmpwalk".

This server is a testing server I have at home. It has no firewall as it is behind one.

The SNMP arguments should be set ok as im using the "Local Linux Machine" option, along with localhost and 127.0.0.1 for the IP address.

I'll take a look into this snmpwalk as initially I could only raise the help messages.

Thanks for your post.

Jon
