First, thanks for the great software.

2nd, feel free to direct me to another list if that should be the case.

Following the example at <http://www.pmacct.net/docs/cacti.html>, the
result is the infamous RED X (missing file) rather than the expected
graph.

Centos 4.8, up to date, using pmacct-0.12.3 and cacti-0.8.7.e (g won't
run at the moment on CentOS 4.8).

nfacctd is started with (as root)

/usr/local/sbin/nfacctd -f /usr/local/etc/pmacctd.conf

and the contents of /usr/local/etc/pmacctd.conf follow at the end of this post.

The permission on the /tmp/in.pipe and /tmp/out.pipe are as follows

[r...@saguaro cacti]# ls -l /tmp
total 16
drwxr-xr-x  3 root   root   4096 Aug  6 12:27 cactiupgrade
srwxrwxrwx  1 root   root      0 Aug 12 09:18 in.pipe
srwxrwxrwx  1 root   root      0 Aug 12 09:18 out.pipe


'pmacct -s -p /tmp/in.pipe' and 'pmacct -s -p /tmp/out.pipe' return
the expected results when run as root.

[cactiu...@saguaro ~]$ pmacct -s -p /tmp/in.pipe

and

[cactiu...@saguaro ~]$ pmacct -s -p /tmp/out.pipe

and (after 'su - apache')

-bash-3.00$ pmacct -s -p /tmp/in.pipe

and

-bash-3.00$ pmacct -s -p /tmp/out.pipe

produce the expected results.

There is no sign of the expected files in /var/www/html/cacti/rra:

[r...@saguaro cacti]# ls -l /var/www/html/cacti/rra/localhost*
-rw-r--r--  1 cactiuser apache 3651280 Aug 12 09:30

The contents of /usr/local/etc/pmacctd.conf:
