Thanks for your response. I set the permission accordingly, but I still have the same problem. The .rrds and slave_cache files are being created, but the graphs are still blank. I ran a debug on the slave and everything went fine...it ended with "Sent data to Server. Server said OK," and the pings showed the latency I was expecting. If I dump one of the .rrd files to xml and view it in an editor, it is has a small amount of real data at the beginning, but it is mostly full of NaNs.
>>> Peter Kristolaitis <[email protected]> 1/7/2009 2:25 PM >>> The directory that holds your RRD files must be readable/writeable by both the Smokeping process AND the webserver. e.g. If - Your httpd runs as 'www' - Smokeping runs as 'smokeping' - In the Smokeping config, datadir = /var/www/smokeping/rrd Then, - Create a new group called 'smokeping' - Add both the 'www' and 'smokeping' users to that group - chgrp smokeping /var/www/smokeping/rrd - chmod -R 775 /var/www/smokeping/rrd That should clear it up. If that doesn't work, run one of your slaves with --debug and see if it spits back an error of any kind.
