thanks

hi jesse,

i can't reproduce this with a fresh install.  are you sure you don't
have some local config change that is tickling this issue?  cacti has
had issues in the past with adodb, but the upstream authors have been
very responsive about fixing issues with external adodb, and there are
no outstanding issues that i know of.

what i wonder:

- are you using the libapache2-mod-php5 for serving up cacti or php4?
- do you have any apache settings like auto_prepend enabled
- do you have anything in /etc/cacti/debian.php besides the database
credentials
- have you made any other change to the cacti source
- do you have any config changes to your php installation


thanks,
        sean
