cacti

Apache 2.2.3 | PHP 5.1.6 | MySQL 5.0.77

I followed cacti installation guide to install latest cacti 0.8.7h on CentOS 5.5 (64-bit). The installation of PHP/Apache/MySQL went smoothly until I finished the setup, and came to the login page.

I can login http://.../cacti/index.php with admin account but the new page is redirected to the same login page with the message "Please enter your Cacti user name and password below"

This is a infinite loop!

If I use a wrong admin password I get the correct error message "Invalid User Name/Password Please Retype". [Same problem here]

If I login use Guest/guest account, "Error: Access Denied, user account disabled." displays.

The Cacti log file (./cacti/log/cacti.log) is empty.

I Googled and seems this problem has existed for a long time, but no followup solutions were found on the forum posts I found. Anyone can help me on this problem? If more information needed, please let me know.

Nov 18, 2011 UPDATE: I re-installed Cacti, this question remains UNSOLVED.

There's the odd forum topic about an error similarly obscure as this, but I haven't seen any for snmp_count in particular. Also I don't see graphing problems, though I can't simply go and eyeball all graphs. However the poller does time out and has to be stopped by its internal process preventing… >>> More
