Hm, this could be a locale problem (rrdtool uses strtod(3), which
honors locales), except that lib/Smokeping.pm already resets LC_NUMERIC.
Try to run in the C locale or similar anyway, to rule that out.
It might be this issue - I am using locale pl_PL, and in Poland we have
comma instead of dot for separating decimal part in numbers... I'll try
running smokeping in C locale and will report here.
Ah, it looks like LC_ALL from the environment overrides LC_NUMERIC
set inside Smokeping.pm. I assume you're using that?
I simply set LC_ALL=pl_PL, global for system... Now I see how BAD idea it
is, especially when it comes to LC_NUMERIC ;)
I'm not sure if resetting LC_ALL in Smokeping is a good idea...probably
not. I guess it's best to bail out with an error message if the locale
switch doesn't succeed. Does the attached patch do that for you?
The patch caused Smokeping to die at the start with "Resetting LC_NUMERIC
failed - try removing LC_ALL from the environment" message.
I have launched smokeping with: LC_ALL=C /etc/init.d/smokeping start - and
it worked! Finally I can test real response to http requests :)
Thanks for help!
