What distro? Did you install cacti from a Package or from source? Which plugins? Where did you download them? Your not giving us a lot of info.

[paulcalabro]

Can you please run:

ls -Al /var/www/html/cacti/plugins/

Not Compatible, Legacy Plugin

If I want to use traffic monitoring, alarm functions like the old version, and send mail, please choose what plug-in or how to implement the function?

[paulcalabro]

It's considered a "Legacy Plugin" based on this code:

function plugin_is_compatible($plugin) {
    global $config;
    $info = plugin_load_info_file($config['base_path'] . '/plugins/' . $plugin . '/INFO');
    if ($info !== false) {
        if (!isset($info['compat']) || cacti_version_compare(CACTI_VERSION, $info['compat'], '<')) {
            return array('compat' => false, 'requires' => __('Requires: Cacti >= %s', $info['compat']));
        }
    } else {
        return array('compat' => false, 'requires' => __('Legacy Plugin'));
    }
    return array('compat' => true, 'requires' => __('Requires: Cacti >= %s', $info['compat']));
}

https://github.com/Cacti/cacti/blob/b6c412e41e9d1c863c4ad26a9f2ec9afa4fcdc60/lib/plugins.php#L783

Either:

• The plugin has no info file
• It has an info file, but the compat value is null
• Or it has an info file, but the Cacti version is less than minimum acceptable compat value.

I looked at the thold plugin-- there's no INFO file, which is why it's being flagged as a legacy plugin.
@cigamit is listed as the author of those plugins. I would check with him to see if they're compatible.
