Given that I don't see the compat libs for mysql5 on your box, I'd guess database as well, unless you rebuilt php, forgot to list them, or mysql changed how they're building stuff. Again, you say it's not an issue, so lets work from there. Dag's cacti rpm works flawlessly unless you have selinux enabled, but it is restricted to localhost however. Are you doing any sort of mod_rewrite in addition to his that would throw you back to the login screen constantly? Do you have mod_rewrite rules or an alias that conflict with the default alias? For those of you running cacti who may want to run with selinux, this is the ruleset that I added to /etc/selinux/targeted/src/policy/domains/misc (if you don't have the targeted policy src, install via yum. If you don't know why I put it there, read the docs. If you don't know what to do after you lave this, the next steps is also covered in the docs.) [root at www misc]# cat local.te # changes made to allow cacti allow httpd_sys_script_t httpd_tmp_t:file { read write }; allow httpd_sys_script_t snmpd_var_lib_t:file { getattr read }; allow httpd_sys_script_t var_lib_t:file { getattr read }; allow snmpd_t selinux_config_t:file { getattr read }; I'm by no means an selinux master.
