Hello,

I had thold running fine but all of a sudden it stopped running - I noticed this from the "last run" time and also the cacti.log which didnt show the usual output...is their a log file/debug option with thold?

I ran check-thold.php from a prompt and all seemed o.k.

Also - how does thold schedule itself to run on a win2k server?

Many thanks,

Larry

Hello,

I ran php poller.php /show and the following was at the bottom of the output where the usual "thold running" message would appear:

I have the report plugin but admit that this never sent out any emails (one of the reasons I installed thold ) - could this be why neither are now working?

Thanks,

More than likely it is the reports plugin killing the thold (after most errors, it stops executing code). Just to check and see if this is the case, just disable the reports plugin (or remove the reports) and try and see if they run. If that is the case, then we know its not a problem with thold, and we can begin to work on the reports error.

Oh, and the thold plugin uses the regular cacti poller to do its work (runs after all polling), the original module used its own cron job, but I found that its easier to not have to set it up

Hi Jimmy,

Thanks for the response - to disable the reporting plugin I just removed the $plugins[] = 'reports'; section from the include/config.php file and thold is now checking the thresholds!

Any info required then let me know,

Thanks,

Larry
