 Posted: Wed May 14, 2008 8:57 am Post subject: Blank flowview query results |
 |
|
Hello,
I've recently setup Cacti 0.8.7b, Plugin Architecture 2.1, and Flowviewer 0.5.1. The plugin installed without a hitch and the collector is running and collecting flow data, however when I run a query, I get a blank table for the result.
My flows directory is: /var/db/flows/
My device flows directory is: cr1ewr1/ (so /var/db/flows/cr1ewr1/)
And the collector is properly collecting flow data to this directory:
| Code: |
root@bandwidth [/var/db/flows/cr1ewr1]$ ls -al | more
total 21819956
drwxr-xr-x 2 flowtools flowtools 49664 May 14 09:51 .
drwx-----T 7 flowtools flowtools 512 May 13 08:41 ..

(...and so on)

The first screenshot shows the paths settings for Flowviewer and the second screenshot shows my settings for this particular device. When I run any query the result is a blank table, as seen in the third screenshot.
There are no error or warning messages in the Cacti log file so I'm not at all sure why we're getting blank query replies. Little help please? Thanks!

How is flow-capture executed? Should be something like this..
/usr/bin/flow-capture -w /var/db/flows/ 0/0/9996 -S5 -V5 -n 1 -e 7 -N -1
The 9996 is the port that your devices are sending their flow data(configurable). The Path section of your config page should then read
Flows Directory Structure = /YYYY-MM-DD
This works for me..

| First thing to check is the time on the router, it must be the same as the time on the Cacti server.
