Bug 1004548

That's odd.

Are you logged into Cacti, or browsing as a guest?

Logged in with full privileges.

I found some stuff online in which Debian users were having the same problem.   They had to install a couple packages to get jquery and jquery-cookie.  I did notice that the EPEL package includes both located in /usr/share/cacti/include/js/jquery.  Just mentioning it in case it helps.

There are no messages being generated in /var/log/httpd/error.log or in /var/log/audit/audit.log.

We did turn on some debugging in a browser and got some javascript error messages.  I will get you those messages in the morning.

The two javascript errors we get loading the page are:

- ReferenceError: findObj is not defined
- TypeError: $(...).jstree is not a function

We are using the Firebug extension in Firefox.


Something to note, Ken did a build containing a patch for thumbnails not showing.

http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/6555/5896555/cacti-0.8.8b-2.1.el6.noarch.rpm

That is what we are running now.

Just checking in to see if you have found anything yet.

Please accept my apologies, but I don't know when I will be able to get to this, and I'm unable to duplicate it on my own Cacti installs.

I recommend contacting upstream about this, or the original author of the Debian patch (Paul Gevers <elbrus>)

If you're able to come up with a new patch to this package, please attach it to this bug report.

I reverted to using treeview from an older version of Cacti.  Tree is fine again.  Guess we'll see what the next release is like then.

Please note that there are many security vulnerabilities in the older version of Cacti in EPEL that contained treeview. We need someone with web dev experience to duplicate your issue and submit a patch.

The issue is caused by clashing versions of jquery brought into Cacti by different plugins, namely Superlinks and Reportit.

The issue can be replicated by installing one or both the mentioned plugins and  can be solved by simply removing the following files from the file system:
 - reportit: /usr/share/cacti/plugins/reportit/lib_ext/jquery/jquery-1.4.2.min.js
 - superlinks: /usr/share/cacti/plugins/reportit/lib_ext/jquery/jquery-1.4.2.min.js 

It is not a clean solution (code should be patched upstream) but works.

Thanks Marco.  I am wondering if this may cause an issue with ReportIt.  I removed /usr/share/cacti/plugins/reportit/lib_ext/jquery/jquery-1.4.2.min.js

After doing that, error messages in /var/log/httpd/error_log started to appear:
[Tue May 20 19:40:36 2014] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] File does not exist: /usr/share/cacti/plugins/reportit/lib_ext/jquery/jquery-1.4.2.min.js, referer: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/cacti/index.php

I haven't moved this system into production yet; I am setting this system up to replace a Windows system.  I am hoping ReportIt will function once I move it into production.  Thanks.

The package has been retired in Rawhide for a while. See http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=53607 and https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2014-October/203695.html

Today I've removed myself from the package in pkgdb.

Jon, please feel free to orphan or retire this package in EPEL.
