| + | ==== Start System Services ==== | ||
| + | Cacti requires the following system services (daemons) to be started. | ||
| + | * crond\\ starts cacti polling | ||
| + | * mysqld\\ stores all administrative data for cacti | ||
| + | * httpd\\ provides the cacti web interface | ||
| + | * snmpd (optional)\\ on the local server is required to poll its snmp based performance data | ||
| + | |||
| + | You should ensure, that on a system restart, those services are restarted as well. System start procedures are under heavy development these days. We have SysV init scripts, upstart and systemd. So things may change ... | ||
| + | |||
| + | This example assumes that we're dealing with the //httpd// web service. **Please apply the same procedure to all services above.** | ||
| + | |||
| + | Here's how to start //httpd// as a service. Make sure, that //httpd// is listed as a service by issuing | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | chkconfig --list|grep httpd | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | Activate //httpd// by | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | chkconfig httpd on | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | to find sth like | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | chkconfig --list|grep httpd | ||
| + | httpd 0:Off 1:Off 2:On 3:On 4:On 5:On 6:Off | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | Now start the service via | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | service httpd start | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | Verify via | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | service httpd status | ||
| + | </code> | ||
