[MacPorts] #23118: cacti logs and databases would be better stored under ${prefix}/var

#23118: cacti logs and databases would be better stored under ${prefix}/var -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: markd@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Keywords: | Port: cacti -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- cacti stores its log file in the log directory inside its directory. It would fit better with the MacPorts hierarchy if the log were stored in ${prefix}/var/log/${name}. Similarly, the round robin database is stored in the rra directory inside its directory. A better fit with the MacPorts mtree would be ${prefix}/var/db/${name} (or ${prefix}/var/db/${name}/rra if we anticipate there being other cacti databases other than those in the rra directory). -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/23118> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

[MacPorts] #23116: cacti shows warnings for deprecated functions with php 5.3

#23116: cacti shows warnings for deprecated functions with php 5.3 -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: markd@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: | Port: cacti -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- cacti doesn't work so well with php 5.3 because it uses functions which are now deprecated, and because cacti configures itself to show all errors, so if display_errors is on, like it is on my development machine, I get tons of "Deprecated: Function ereg_replace() is deprecated" messages in the browser window. This is already patched in svn something like [http://bugs.cacti.net/view.php?id=1568 this] but a simpler solution for now could be to patch global.php to set error_reporting to `E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED` instead of `E_ALL`. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/23116> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

[MacPorts] #23113: cacti should install a sample config file

#23113: cacti should install a sample config file -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: markd@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: | Port: cacti -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- cacti currently installs a file config.php, then the port prints instructions advising the user to edit this file. The user's changes will be lost when the user upgrades the port. The port should instead install a sample config file, e.g. config.php.sample, and advise the user to copy this to config.php and edit it. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/23113> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

[MacPorts] #22449: StartupItems page could be clearer?

#22449: StartupItems page could be clearer? ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: dreamcat4@… | Owner: markd@… Type: request | Status: new Priority: High | Milestone: MacPorts 1.8.2 Component: guide | Version: 1.8.1 Keywords: launchd startupitem | Port: ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Hi! The macports guide: http://ruderich.com/macports/chunked/ch05s07.html Just isn't quite clear enough when talking about startup items / daemondo / launchd plists. We hope it may be improved in three areas: 1) Daemondo command-line arguments (string quoting): The section 5.7.2 Note: ---- Do not wrap values in quotes if passing arguments to the daemon; “executable” StartupItem elements must be tagged individually so the spaces between arguments serve as delimiters for “string” tags. For example, this startupitem key/value pair: startupitem.executable ${prefix}/sbin/vm-pop3d -d 10 -t 600 ---- This explanatory note is well intentions, However it its just a little too unclear. A user may wrap the entire command string in quotes. The explanatory note says nothing against this (and execvp fails). TCL does not strip any outside quotes and therefore it would be better to say: "Do use quotes anywhere in the command string" rather than "Do not wrap values in quotes if passing arguments". BUT "A quoted string will be passed as-is.", "unlike regular shell command, quotes will not be stripped". etc. A clearer explanation (with examples) is provided on the mailing list thread. Please see the mailinglist thread for full details: http://www.mail-archive.com/macports- users(a)lists.macosforge.org/msg16988.html 2) port load / port unload command not documented. This is a new feature, recently introduced into MacPorts. But it isn't mentioned anywhere in section 5.7.4. It seem to be applicable to daemondo items only. So that would correspond to plists created by "startupitem.executable" and "startupitem <script>" methods. Or a manually created script that called daaemondo. "port load daemondo-label" "port unload daemondo-label" See the blog post: http://www.reasonablyopinionated.com/2009/06/intro-to-using-launchctl- with-macports.html It is also known that the command: "port load tagname" will work globally for all plist files. Or only daemondo plist files 3) Manual plists in files/ directory Users can only create one plist file per Portfile. It may be the case for a complex software service, multiple plists need to be used. It would be nice to see a mention at the end of the page that explains briefly how you can put extra manual plists into files/ directory of a port. Thank you. For all 1),2),3) Answers please see mailinglist dicussion: http://www.mail-archive.com/macports- users(a)lists.macosforge.org/msg16988.html We were all quite confused but got there in the end ! -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/22449> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
