Greetings MRTG community, I run mrtg via crom every five minutes, and get loads of these messages coming through :
====== 16-02-2011 03:20:01, Rateup WARNING: /usr/bin/rateup Can't rename 127.0.0.1_2.tmp to 127.0.0.1_2.log updating log file ====== A lot of the posts I have read on this suggest that this behaviour is normal and that it should only occur the first time mrtg is run. I put this to the test today by running the cron manually from the command line, and sure enough, the error appeared. A few seconds later I ran the cron again, and the error never appeared. The mrtg graphs are being displayed correctly when I view them, so I am happy about that, but I would just like to clean up my daily barrage of emails I receive from all of our servers, and this will help a lot if I can get to the bottom of this problem. I checked through the mail archives and although I read many posts, none that I did suggested how to fix the problem for good. I would be greatful if someone could point me to a solution, I`m guessing I overlooked that *one* mail that provides a definitive answer on this. My server specs are : Centos 5.5 mrtg-2.14.5 I do apologise if you have answered this question before, I am new to this list and to mrtg, so perhaps I am looking in the wrong places for the solution. Many thanks for your time and willingness to assist. -- Chris Blake [email protected] Tel: 0861 IGROUP (447 687) Ext: 2280 | Int: +27 11 712-3900 | Fax: 011 507-5749 | www.igroup.co.za iGroup Call Centre Outsourcing – email [email protected] Delays in responding to emails will result in delays in project completion dates and may incur additional charges.
