Hi,
I have this working and would like the graphs to report correct info.
At the moment the game server has 6 player in and the data at the bottom is reporting.
Max Players: 14.00
Current: 6.00
Average: 4.99
Maximum: 6.00
How can I get it to show
Max Players: 14
Current: 6
Average: 4
Maximum: 6
Lose the .00 ????
Please help |

Perhaps I'm being dense. How do I specify IP/port information?
Hrrmm, I may have bigger issues. When importing the templates (per the Readme.txt) I am getting some Unmet Dependencies
importing "cacti_graph_template_game_server_status_players.xml"
| Code: |
Cacti has imported the following items:
GPRINT Preset
[success] Normal [update]
Graph Template
[success] Game Server Status - Players [new]

+ Unmet Dependency: (Data Template Item)

I've gotten Hangy's templates to work now. The steps I took were as follows:
Download and install his scripts per his README.txt (I ignored the unmet dependancy issues from my prior post)
In cacti (with administrative priviledges)
1) Console -> "Data Input Methods" -> Game Server Status
a. Here, I had to change my "input string" because on my debian system, the user scripts seemed to want to be placed in "/usr/local/share/cacti/" The point is wherever you install the scripts, doublecheck your paths to the scripts here.
b. Also check the syntax of the script. It was initially "pathtoscripts/gameserver.php<game><ip><port><query_port>" Checking my logs, it was not using a whitespace between game/ip/port/queryport thus causing the php to crap out. I inserted a whitespace between the <game> <ip> <port> <query_port> thus becoming
| Code: |
gameserver.php <game> <ip> <port> <query_port> |
Of course, your scripts may not be in the same spot as my system, so modify your pathname as appropriate here.
I believe that's all I did to make mine to work. To add the graph, I had to create a "Data Source" for this.
I selected console -> Data Source -> Select host -> Add
I select "Game Server Status" from the dropdown "selected data template" menu and select the appropriate host then click "Create"
I now have a new data source for my data sources.
On the next page under "Supplemental Data Template Data" I modified this field to be my descriptor for the game. In the custom data section, I replaced warsow with my gametype (example: q3 ), filled in my IP of the game server with appropriate port
Create the Graph:
Console -> Graph Management -> Add
From the "Selected Graph Template" pick the appropriate "Game Server Status" option (I chose "Game Server Status - Players" ) click Create.
I doublecheck that I am using the appropriate templates (game server status - players, and my host), then I title my graph appropriately. I then select my max players from my datasource and my playercount from the new datasource. I click Save and wait the appropriate time for the data to populate.
I'm sorry if this was really really basic, but from the past 4 pages of posts, the majority of posters (like me) didnt have a clue and those who found a clue didnt post their steps. If my steps are confusing or need clarification, let me know, I'll try and follow this thread. |

Sorry I'm new to all of this.
Thanks |

I'm pleased that someone found it useful.
Re-reading my howto reminds me that I need to document my steps better. I'm terrible at documentation.
Hangy is "the man" I just wrote down what I did as a cacti-novice to make it work. |

Hi! The script works like a charm.
But.. in the perl script i see that it has ability to grab map, name & ip.
I would like to use these as GPRINT on the graph but i dont understand much of the xml-files :/
Can anyone add these things or tell me how to do it manually within cacti?
Thanks |

I have a little problem with this script... It is running when I execute manually the poller.php (cactid or cmd.php). But with the poller.php in a crontab, only this graph doesn't work...
My crontab is the same command :
| Code: | | */5 * * * * /usr/share/cacti/cacti.sh |
And in my cacti.sh :
| Code: |
#!/bin/sh
/usr/share/cacti/site/poller.php # /dev/null 2>>/var/log/cacti/poller-error.log |
When I run this shell script manually, the graph update nice, but with crontab, nothing :/
I try the .sh for try to correct the problem...
My logs say a "basic" error :
| Code: |
08/19/2007 05:45:05 PM - CACTID: Poller[0] Host[18] DS[145] SCRIPT: perl /usr/share/cacti/site/scripts/hls_query.pl 91.121.25.199:27060, output: U
08/19/2007 05:45:05 PM - CACTID: Poller[0] Host[18] DS[145] WARNING: Result from SCRIPT not valid. Partial Result: ... |
But the output is correct... When I run the poller manually :/
I run Cacti Version 0.8.6j with plugin architecture 1.1
You can see my Cacti on http://cacti.fun-frags.net/graph_view.php
I apologize for my English, I'm French... Very Nice project all the Cacti Template, Script & Plugin, to be continued  |

I'm using Hangy's zip file instead of the file linked in the first post. The first graph that I want to do is a player count for TF2 with a maximum. Here's the output from the Graph Debug:
| Quote: | RRDTool Command:
/usr/bin/rrdtool graph - \
--imgformat=PNG \
--start=-86400 \
--end=-300 \
--title="Llama - TF2 Status" \

--height=120 \
--width=500 \
--alt-autoscale-max \
--lower-limit=0 \
--vertical-label="" \
--slope-mode \
LINE2:#8D00BA:"Maximum Players" \
GPRINT::LAST:"Current\:%8.2lf %s\n" \
AREA:#FF0000:"Current Player Count" \
GPRINT::LAST:"Current\:%8.2lf %s" \
GPRINT::AVERAGE:"Average\:%8.2lf %s" \
GPRINT::MAX:"Maximum\:%8.2lf %s\n"
RRDTool Says:
ERROR: parameter '#8D00BA' does not represent a number in line LINE2:#8D00BA:Maximum Players |
The output from the Data Source Debug:

RRA:MAX:0.5:6:700 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:24:775 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:288:797 \ |
Can anyone see anything obvious?
TIA

Edit. Never mind. Stupid mistake on my part. Gotta select a data source first!  |
