Patrick,

My border is that the  cron job for poller.php does not seem to be working. I set the cron as root. The entry in my /etc/crontab is pasted
below:

*/5 * * * * cactiuser /usr/local/bin/php /usr/local/www/apache22/data/cacti/poller.php > /dev/null 2>&1

How may I get it runing?


Cheers,

Graph data will remain blank for at least two runs of the poller over 
the poller interval. If your cron job is fine, then just check the 
graphs after 15min.
