Copying the .old and .log files over to the new workdirectory was sufficient for viewing old data but I still would like to know how to get it into a dbase. However copying the old .cfg files over hasn't gone as smoothly. I did update the WorkDir path but still log several similar event log error messages:
Argument "ERROR" isn't numeric in subroutine entry at D:/Program Files/ActivePerl/site/lib/Win32/EventLog.pm line 199, Am I forgetting something basic here? Particulars: W2K sp3 all updates ActivePerl 5.8 MRTG 2.9.28 Startup command: "D:\Program Files\ActivePerl\bin\wperl.exe" mrtg --logging=eventlog mrtg.cfg Working Dir: "D:\Program Files\mrtg-2.9.28\bin" Thanks John Bonner -----Original Message----- From: David Gitman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 15, 2003 11:43 To: Bonner, John Subject: RE: [mrtg] Importing Old MRTG data You can't just copy the .log and .old files over?

I would like to kinda plan my installs and configs instead of changing on the fly.

Are you using RRD now? [-d] -----Original Message----- From: Bonner, John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 15, 2003 10:50 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello all, I am in the process of rebuilding one of my monitoring boxes and as such have upgraded my version of mrtg from 2.8 to 2.9. I would like to know of a way to import previous configuration, historical data, as well as log/read to/from a database etc. I read the FAQ and there was nothing in it except a mention of putting the files in a Round Robin database using rrdtools, I was hoping to store them in a more robust method such as MSSQL. Google groups revealed several others with the same question and a few references to recovery from a corrupted log file. I would be more than happy to write the FAQ once I have been educated on the process.
