I used to see that.  Not frequently, but enough to be a problem.  It was due
to a corrupted rrd file causing the rrdMainLoop thread to bomb.  Once that
bombs, it doesn't restart and poof.

(1) Try enabling debug and - although you'll get a ton of messages - buried
in there should be either some errors or you will see the last one that
updates.

(2) Check the mtime (modification times) of the .rrd files.  The one that
isn't being updated in a set is the suspect.  i.e. if the last update was to
/a/b/c/d/xxxx.rrd, anything else in that directory that wasn't updated on
that cycle is suspect (but remember, only .rrd files which have data points
are updated).

It's seems odd that there are currently contacted peers and multicast bytes
and bytes send/received but no tcp sent locally.  Unless that's normal for
the host.



I have not had problems w/ the CVS version.

Subject: [Ntop] rrd not updating

Using 3.1 on Fedora Core 2.

My rrd files (/usr/share/ntop/rrd/interface/eth1/*) stopped updating a few
months back. I can't figure out why they don't change. I see the rrd thread
starting in the syslog but no errors. With tracing set to 4 I still don't
see anything to suggest why they're not getting touched. The ntop user has
write access to them. Any suggestions on what else to check?
