Hi,

http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/fedora-rhel-install-cacti-monitoring-rrd-software/

i am stuck at this command

#####################################
rpm -ql cacti | grep cacti.sql
/usr/share/doc/cacti-0.8.7g/cacti.sql
#######################################


[root@localhost ~]# mysql -u cacti -p cacti < /usr/share/doc/cacti-0.8.7g/cacti.sql
Enter password: PASSWORD
ERROR 1064 (42000) at line 5: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'TYPE=MyISAM' at line 6
############################################################################3

not able to understand whats this error is. please point me to right direction.

thanks

You'd be better off asking in a Cacti forum or on their mailing list, but my guess is that you may have a too-old version of MySQL?

You might also like to take a look at /usr/share/doc/cacti-0.8.7g/cacti.sql and see if there are any obvious problems in there
