Recently installed nfsen. Had to drop back to an earlier version as our OS 
didn’t support the current version. Everything seems to work fine except for 
profiles. I’ve seen this issue discussed on the mailing list, but can’t find a 
clear answer to the problem

Our live profile works fine, displays the graphs for our sources with no 
problem.

In trying to create profiles and alerts, though, we can’t get graphs to 
display. If I create a continuous/shadow profile, even though the graphs don’t 
display, I can still run the process at the bottom of the page and get results 
from nfdump.

Ex: A profile with a filter built to monitor http traffic:

** nfdump -M /flows/live/centurylink:iron -T  -r 2014/09/04/nfcapd.201409040415 
-n 10 -s ip/flows
nfdump filter:
(( ident centurylink or ident iron) and (
port 80
))

So, the profile can see the flow repositories, but the graph isn’t processing 
them for some reason. I’m not sure what to look for in the logs, if there’s any 
info in there that can help troubleshoot this. And I’m at a loss when it comes 
to RRD, as I’ve never used it before. 

I have noted that a Continuous profile will not display even the nfdump process 
at the bottom, giving a stat() error: File not found. Which, I assume is 
because the files aren’t being copied over to profile’s data repository. 

Any help on getting graphs to work would be appreciated.
