Cacti 0.8.7g released

July 17th, 2010 by Niels Horn in Slackware, cacti

After the problems with Cacti release 0.8.7f a few weeks ago, the updated version 0.8.7g was released this week.

I successfully updated my server, which was a very simple process.
After installing the new package, the web-page automatically redirected to the upgrade-page and with a single click Cacti was up-and-running again. :)

The new SlackBuild is in the pending queue of SlackBuilds.org and the pre-built package is available on my site.

    Hi,

    Well, first of all, 0.8.7f was pulled shortly after it was released, as it had some bugs. Are you sure your version is “f”?

    Second, upgrading should be straightforward if you use the “upgradepkg” command in Slackware.
    The data will be preserved and all should be fine.

    Cacti also comes with extensive documentation (installed in /usr/doc/cacti-/) that should help you.

    Regards,

    Niels
