NetVicious,

The other post is a workaround. I am reviewing the rrdtool code with it's developer for to get us back in business. Please verify the version of RRDtool that you are using.

If yours is the problem I think it is, then the previous post should resolve it. Please let me know. There is some graph syntax that RRDtool is not liking and it is closing the pipe.

Sorry for the lag. I didn't have time to see the full post.

I'm using the debian version of RRDtool, version 1.0.49.


I will study the problem with the new info. Thanks.

I have been experiencing this problem also. All of my graphs that use a script as the data source have gaps in them seemingly randomly. Some of my snmp graphs also have gaps in them.

I can trace the poller and it runs the script but it doesn't always convert the information into a cacti2rrd command.

If you need any more information, just let me know.

*edit*

cacti version: 0.8.6d
rrdtool version: 1.0.049-2.2

josh_borke,

I think we have to be more specific here. First of all, there is a known bug with PHP Script Server scripts that is corrected with a patch to 0.8.6f. Also, the patch to 0.8.6f is imperative. Especially if your server is internet facing.

Now with that said, can you describe your scripts in a little more detail.

Thanks,

TheWitness

Ok, so I need to upgrade to 0.8.6f (done) AND apply patches? Just want to get my facts straight.

As far as the scripts go, they are very simple and cat 2 files. A snippet from the log file is:

This entry updated.

07/22/2005 03:10:11 PM - CMDPHP: Poller[0] Host[21] CMD: perl /var/www/html/cacti/scripts/get_temp.pl 2 3 4, output: floorTemp:58.0 wallTemp:82.7 bTemp:79.5

07/22/2005 03:10:11 PM - POLLER: Poller[0] Parsed MULTI output field 'bTemp:79.5' [map bTemp->bTemp]

This entry did not:

07/22/2005 03:15:10 PM - CMDPHP: Poller[0] Host[21] CMD: perl /var/www/html/cacti/scripts/get_temp.pl 2 3 4, output: floorTemp:57.9 wallTemp:82.8 bTemp:79.6

The poller finishes without mapping the multi-output field and updating the rrd file.

get_temp.pl just connects to a temptrax monitor and outputs 3 fields, another script cats a file that contains 3 different fields.

The scripts will work most of the time, but there are gaps that happen in the 5 minute intervals.

Thanks for the help! I'll let you know if upgrading to 0.8.6f corrected the gaps.
