Hey Peter: I suggest you un-install all the ganglia packages and start fresh...
When you remove the ganglia packages, is /var/lib/ganglia still there? If so, I would remove it and try installing all the packages again. Cheers, Bernard P.S. I have all the same RPM packages as you do, though I do not have the libs installed. > -----Original Message----- > From: Chiu, PCM (Peter) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, April 21, 2004 11:39 > To: Bernard Li; Chiu, PCM (Peter) ; 'Rene Salmon' > Cc: '[email protected]' > Subject: RE: [Ganglia-general] A new user question on > ganglia-webfrontend > > Thanks for your further update, Bernard, > > It looks like my unlucky day. > > I removed the rrdtool 1.0.48, and ganglia-webfrontend, > reapply rrdtool.1.0.45-1, and ganglia-webfrontend, > > restarted all, but still get no graphs??? > > Are the versions on ganglia stuffs match with yours? > > Peter > > rpm -qa | egrep "gang|rrd" > ganglia-webfrontend-2.5.5-1 > ganglia-monitor-core-gmond-2.5.6-1 > ganglia-monitor-core-lib-2.5.4-8 > ganglia-monitor-core-gmetad-2.5.6-1 > rrdtool-1.0.45-1.fr > > cat /var/log/httpd/error_log > [Wed Apr 21 19:29:32 2004] [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting > down [Wed Apr 21 19:29:34 2004] [notice] Digest: generating > secret for digest authentication ... > [Wed Apr 21 19:29:34 2004] [notice] Digest: done [Wed Apr 21 > 19:29:35 2004] [notice] Apache/2.0.40 (Red Hat Linux) configured > -- resuming normal operations > ERROR: can't parse DEF > 'limits='/var/lib/ganglia/rrds/BADC_Cluster/backup.badc.rl.ac. > uk/load_one.rr > d':'sum':AVERAGE' -2 > ERROR: can't parse DEF > 'limits='/var/lib/ganglia/rrds/BADC_Cluster/balmy.badc.rl.ac.u > k/load_one.rrd > ':'sum':AVERAGE' -2 > ERROR: unknown function 'L' > ERROR: unknown function 'M' > ERROR: unknown function 'N' > ERROR: unknown function 'CPU' > ERROR: invalid color def format > ERROR: invalid color def format > > -----Original Message----- > From: Bernard Li [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 21 April 2004 19:13 > To: Chiu, PCM (Peter) ; Rene Salmon > Cc: [email protected] > Subject: RE: [Ganglia-general] A new user question on > ganglia-webfrontend > > > Hi Peter: > > rpm -U is for 'upgrading' a package - if you do not already have the > package, you should do -I, not -U. > > The version of rrdtool we have for our RH9 is 1.0.45 - I have > a feeling the > RPM you have d/led is not compatible with RedHat 9.0...
