It looks as pretty much same things as I encountered identical behavior. I also at some point ran bisect on that and find when it "broke": http://mailman.verplant.org/pipermail/collectd/2010-September/004117.html altho I'm not sure if its "new" or "old" bug because after that I splitted my collectd instalation to so exec never runs on unixsock-enabled ones Hope it helps :) -- Mariusz Gronczewski _______________________________________________ collectd mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.verplant.org/listinfo/collectd
