Cycle Plugin not displaying on site after install.
Good Day!
Let me preface this post by saying my linux-fu is somewhat limited--so I apologize ahead of time if I'm missing something obvious.
When I was hired for my position I inherited our Cacti server as a small side project from a previous employee. I'm attempting to install the Cycle Plugin, with the end goal of giving our Help Desk a Cacti Accout so they can display a rotation of graphs on their new display screen to "Oooh! and Ahhh!" customers as they walk in the door. (Sidenote: If you think there's a better plugin out there to push graphs out to the customer service side so they can display them, please let me know)
However, I cannot seem to get cycle to show up as a tab on the website or under the User Management Menu.
Details:
I am running Cacti Version 0.8.7b, on a Red Hat 4.1.2-42.
I've downloaded the latest version of cycle (0.7), and I've edited the plugins\global.php See quote below for the snippet of the global.php
Quote:
/* Default session name - Session name must contain alpha characters */
$cacti_session_name = "Cacti";
$plugins = array();
#$plugins[] = 'thold';
$plugins[] = 'aggregate';
$plugins[] = 'monitor';
$plugins[] = 'settings';
$plugins[] = 'update';
$plugins[] = 'weathermap';
$plugins[] = 'syslog';
$plugins[] = 'netmon';
$plugins[] = 'cycle';
#$plugins[] = 'npc';
/* Do not edit this line */
$config = array();
Things I've tried:
1. I'm not very experienced with PHP, so I wasn't sure if "cycle" targeted the plugins directory name. To be safe I renamed the directory from
"cycle_v0.7" to "cycle". ( I also went the other direction and named both the folder and the plugin "cycle_v0.7" just to be safe.)
2. I tried a couple older versions for Cycle, .50, and .3. .3 displayed as a tab, but showed no data in it (and didn't show up under user management.)
I'm not really sure what else I can try at this point. Any suggestions?
If you need me to post anymore data, please let me know what.
Thank you.
