# Mysql-p cacti <cacti. SQL # import the cacti data table created by cacti TO THE created cacti data table.

# Mysql-u root-pxxxxx # Use root to input mysql

Mysql> grant all on cacti. * TO cactiuser @ localhost identified by 'somepassword'; # create the user metadata and password of the cacti resource.

Bye

# Vi/usr/local/www/data-dist/cacti/include/config. php # cacti config settings

$ Database_default = "cacti ";

$ Database_hostname = "localhost ";

$ Database_username = "cactiuser ";

$ Database_password = "somepassword ";

# Pw adduser cactiuser # create cactiuser

# Passwd cactiuser

Changing local password for cactiuser

New Password: xxxx

Retype New Password: xxxx

# Chown-R cactiuser rra/log/# modify the permission limits of rra and log so that cactiuser becomes invalid

# Crontab-e # create a crontab to run the cacti traffic quota once every five minutes

*/5 */usr/local/bin/php/usr/local/www/data-dist/cacti/poller. php>/dev/null 2> & 1

# Php poller. php # You can also manually run cacti once.

Finally, set http: // your-server/cacti/

Start a browser to configure your cacti category, and log on to the server for the first time. The first access password is admin/admin, before logon, the system requires you to change the password of the new logon admin user.
