An example of how to set folder permissions is shown here, though you may need to adjust this depending on your operating system, user accounts and desired permissions.
Therefore, several versions ago, Cacti was enhanced to provide Whitelist capabilities on the these types of Data Input Methods. Though this does secure Cacti more thoroughly, it does increase the amount of work required by the Cacti administrator to import and manage Templates and Packages.
To make identifying Data Input Methods in this state, we have provided a validation script in Cacti's CLI directory that can be run with the following options:
It is strongly suggested that you update your config.php to enable this feature by uncommenting the <b>$input_whitelist</b> variable and then running the three CLI script options above after the web based install has completed.
If your devices require a different set of options to be used first, you may define them below and they will be utilized before the defaults
All options may be adjusted post installation
This may occur if you have a blank database and have not yet imported the cacti.sql file
Your server collation appears to be UTF8 compliant
Your server collation does NOT appear to be fully UTF8 compliant.
Under the [mysqld] section, locate the entries named 'character-set-server' and 'collation-server' and set them as follows:
Your database default collation appears to be UTF8 compliant
Your database default collation does NOT appear to be full UTF8 compliant.
Any tables created by plugins may have issues linked against Cacti Core tables if the collation is not matched. Please ensure your database is changed to 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci' by running the following:
You have more tables than your PHP configuration will allow us to display/convert. Please modify the max_input_vars setting in php.ini to a value above %s
One or more tables are too large to convert during the installation. You should use the cli/convert_tables.php script to perform the conversion, then refresh this page. For example:
All your tables appear to be UTF8 and Dynamic row format compliant
YOU MUST MANUALLY CHANGE THE CACTI DATABASE TO REVERT ANY UPGRADE CHANGES THAT HAVE BEEN MADE.<br/>THE INSTALLER HAS NO METHOD TO DO THIS AUTOMATICALLY FOR YOU
Downgrading should only be performed when absolutely necessary and doing so may break your installation
Press '%s' then click '%s' to complete the installation process after selecting your Device Templates.
