Hi all,
I'm trying to get Cacti installed on my CentOS 4.3 x86_64 box. I've got all of required packages installed, and created database file, and followed all the instructions in install manual.
However, when I get login screen and use admin for username/password, it simply redirects me straight back to login screen. Looking at user_log table, the authentication was successfull (and since it was updated, I know database stuff works OK). If I type username or password wrong, I get messages saying so. If I just use admin as username/password, I get normal login screen with no "wrong password" message.
I'm kind of stuck. Googling around hasn't helped much either. Anybody else had same problem?
Searching the list archive, I can see there are many folks outthere running Cacti on CentOS, so hopefully somebody could help me out.
Some additional notes:
One thing I had to do was to hardcode paths in include/config.php for $config["base_path"] and $config["library_path"]. The ereg_replace stuff was throwing "premature end of regular expression" errors. Could be related to the problem I have.
I got same thing with Karan's and cacti.org SRPM files (0.8.6d and 0.8.6h, respectively).
SELinux is in permissive mode on the box.
