I gave up on trying to get that working (but it was a long time, and quite a
few versions, ago). I wrote some CGI scripts in BASH to wrap round it, like
this (it's not pretty, but it was written a while ago and comes under the
category of "works, so don't fix it") :
<stuff that processes options from URL, reads config files, and sets script
variables>
Etime=`/bin/date +%s`
Etime=$(( ${Etime} / ${Step} * ${Step} ))
PrintedTime=$(/bin/date -d "19700101 00:00 +0000 ${Etime}sec" +"%H\:%M %a %d %b
%Y")
Exptime=$(( ${Etime} + ${Step} ))
echo "Content-Type: image/png
Last-Modified: `date --rfc-2822 -d "19700101 00:00 +0000 ${Etime}sec"`
Expires: `date --rfc-2822 -d "19700101 00:00 +0000 ${Exptime}sec"`
"
<stuff that generates RRD script> \
| /usr/bin/rrdcgi --filter - > /dev/null
cat ${GraphPath}/${GrFile}-${Max}-${TimeScale}.png
Then I can call it with http://myserver/<stuff>.cgi?<options>×cale=day to
get a one day graph, with options for week, month, year. I use the --lazy
option to RRD so it doesn't need to generate images that haven't updated, and
the Expires: header tells the browser how long it should cache the image for.
