Upgrading Thold to the latest version

Sometimes during the upgrade process, not all required columns or table may have been added to the database. This error may manifest itself with an “Error: Save failed” message when trying to save changes to a device.

A possible fix to this is to manually call the upgrade.php script. To do this, go to the command line and change to the thold plugin. Then call the upgrade script:

cd /path/to/cacti/plugins/thold
php extras/upgrade.php

Then re-try saving a device. You will see the following messages:
