rrd's are not being created consistently

Post by mitchm87 »

Everynow and again (lets say I reload my MySQL database and reinstall all my devices) I will get cacti to send a create to rrdtool.

I saw in rrd.php that there is code to cause the update feature to create rrd's if an rrd is not found - but this doesn't seem to be the case.

When running my poller I get data in the MySQL database and the only error I see is taht my rrdtool update command cannot find the base rrd file. It's not a permission problem because _sometimes_ when I reload my MySQL database and start from scratch it will decide to create the initial rrd. Very finicky.

Could someone review the code revolving around the creation of rrds? More specifically make sure that when we try to update an rrd that our file verification is checking the right structure?

Thanks,
Mitch

You keep reloading the cacti db on the same server? Why? What else are you changing during this time?

With the cacti.log in debugging mode, what do you see cacti trying to do with the 'broken' rrd files you're having problems with?
