I have a cron job that runs every ten minutes and runs commands that look
like this:

/usr/bin/gmetric --name myvar_1 --value $total1 --type int16 --units myunits
/usr/bin/gmetric --name myvar_2 --value $total2 --type int16 --units myunits


Where $total[1|2] is positive whole number that is changing all the time.

I see the values changing on the "Constant Metrics" page, but the graphs for
my created metrics either don't appear at all, or come up with a broken
image in the browser (just the name not the graph).

Seemed like the very first one I created worked but after that...

Thanks.
