No Graph

[sirheaven]

Hi

I have a problem with a graph from a custome script.
I went trouht the steps of your documentation http://www.cacti.net/downloads/docs/htm ... graph.html .
No graph will created, but the rrd file will be updated every round.
I checked the logs i found the following passage:

10/19/2005 09:12:41 AM - WEBLOG: Poller[0] CACTI2RRD: c:/rrdtool/rrdtool.exe graph - --imgformat=PNG --start=1129619557 --end=1129705957 --title="|host_description| - CPU Usage" --rigid --base=1000 --height=120 --width=500 --alt-autoscale-max --lower-limit=0 COMMENT:"From 2005/10/18 09\:12\:37 To 2005/10/19 09\:12\:37\c" COMMENT:" \n" --vertical-label="percent" --slope-mode AREA:#B1441E:"CPU Usage" GPRINT::LAST:"Current\:%8.0lf" GPRINT::AVERAGE:"Average\:%8.0lf" GPRINT::MAX:"Maximum\:%8.0lf"

On a good graph you will see this :

10/19/2005 09:12:32 AM - WEBLOG: Poller[0] CACTI2RRD: c:/rrdtool/rrdtool.exe graph - --imgformat=PNG --start=-86400 --end=-300 --title="NSBDN012 - Traffic - 4/7" --rigid --base=1000 --height=120 --width=500 --alt-autoscale-max --lower-limit=0 --vertical-label="bytes per second" --slope-mode DEF:a="C\:/Apache2/htdocs/cacti/rra/nsbdn012_traffic_in_49.rrd":traffic_in:AVERAGE DEF:b="C\:/Apache2/htdocs/cacti/rra/nsbdn012_traffic_in_49.rrd":traffic_out:AVERAGE AREA:a#00CF00:"Inbound" GPRINTLAST:" Current\:%8.2lf %s" GPRINTAVERAGE:"Average\:%8.2lf %s" GPRINTMAX:"Maximum\:%8.2lf %s\n" LINE1:b#002A97:"Outbound" GPRINTLAST:"Current\:%8.2lf %s" GPRINTAVERAGE:"Average\:%8.2lf %s" GPRINTMAX:"Maximum\:%8.2lf %s"

Any ideas where i made a mistake?

1) Other graphs work fine?
2) manually run the rrdtool graph command output and see what the error(s) are. If you see a lot of gibberish, pipe it into a .png file and see if thats valid.

Hi BSOD2600

1. All other graphs woks fine.

2. when we run the the rrd tool manually its generate the graph with the corrcte values!

It seems that cacti not generate the complete command for the rrd tool.
The DEF Parameter doesn't exist. Look at the example :

If it's just one graph thats broken, try deleting and recreating it.

You're using rrdtool 1.2.11 ?

[sirheaven]

Hi

Yes just that Graph is broken.
I deleted this graph and the sources and creted it again. I did also repeated the How-to several times. But always the same result.

I use the rrdtool version:

1) Have you applied the patches for cacti?
2) Did you specify (or double check) the data sources for that graph have been properly been selected?
3) When you recreated the graph, all you deleted was the graph template, right? Might need to delete the data source too (you can probably use the same rrd file again though) and recreate that as well.
