Hello, This could be caused by the extra configuration file that comes with the Debian/Ubuntu package, located in '/etc/monitorix/conf.d/' directory.
Please, read the following excerpt from the installation HOWTO for Debian/Ubuntu systems: <http://www.monitorix.org/doc-debian.html> "IMPORTANT NOTICE: The Debian package also comes with an extra configuration file in /etc/monitorix/conf.d/00-debian.conf that includes some options specially adapted for Debian systems. This file will be loaded right after the main configuration file, hence some options in the main configuration will be overwritten by this extra file." I hope that helped. Regards.
