The above is just a snippet! That repeats every five minutes. The size of the log is ever-increasing. "Clear Cacti Log File" under "System Utilities" is supposed to take care of this, but it gives an error when I try:

Clear Cacti Log File
Error: Unable to clear log, no write permissions.

It was necessary to log into okra and sudo rm cacti.log. I made a copy, though, just in case. The warnings go back as far as January 2006. Has the issue with jalapeno, etc. been going on that long?
