Hi Nils,
Yes I am loading the plugin from collectd config file. Here is the python
plugin part of my /etc/collectd.conf file:
LoadPlugin python
<Plugin python>
ModulePath "/var/lib/collectd/mongodb.py"
Import "mongodb"
<Module mongodb>
Host "127.0.0.1"
Database "virtunomic"
</Module>
</Plugin>
mongodb.py file is the one from
https://github.com/sebest/collectd-mongodb/blob/master/mongodb.py
collectd can't load the plugin and when I run python script manually - just as
a python script I got error: can't load collectd module. The error is in line 5
of the python script "import collectd". In collectd log file there is different
error so maybe it could load collectd module when is run from collectd daemon.
The error in log file is: ImportError: No module named mongodb
[root@cisco_aci_dev184 ~]# /etc/init.d/collectd restart ; tail -f
/var/log/collectd.log

Hi Pawel,
are you loading the plugin from collectd's config file as described in
its documentation [1]?
Python scripts importing the collectd module are meant to be run by a
Python interpreter included in collectd (by loading and configuring the
"Python" plugin in collectd.conf) to avoid the overhead of running
multiple Python interpreters. Running those scripts manually from the
commandline won't work.
To add to the confusion, there's also a Python wrapper around collectd's
Unix socket interface, but that one isn't used here.
Regards,
Nils
