dr. matroid (cool name)- the fix would be to simply tell the web frontend where to find your round-robin databases (since they are in a non-standard place).
all configuration options live in the "./config.php" file. open it.. and edit the line $rrds = "$gmetad_root/rrds"; to read $rrds = "/home/m254/rrdtool"; and you should be set. good luck! -matt Yesterday, Dr. Matroid wrote forth saying... > From: Dr. Matroid <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: Bernard Li <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, ganglia-general@lists.sourceforge.net > Date: Mon, 05 Apr 2004 20:53:47 -0700 (PDT) > Subject: RE: [Ganglia-general] Ganglia graphs not showing > > As Mr. Spock would say, "fascinating."
