Was this a new installation of the smokeping package or an upgrade from
an earlier version?

I upgraded to 10.04 LTS from previous versions
I put quite a bit of effort into getting this right in the package,
and I'd love to find out what went wrong for you.

[Mon Sep 06 09:58:19 2010] [error] [client 192.168.1.54] File does
not exist: /var/www/cache, referer:
I have no idea where this is coming from. Please include your
/etc/smokeping/apache2.conf and /etc/smokeping/config.d/pathnames.
I attached the two files. I played around with the pathnames, but before I did that, I made a copy, so this 'should' be the original.
Some background: earlier versions of the package installed the web
side in /var/www, but as this was a violation of the Debian policy
(and the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard) they now (as of 2.3.6-4) go in
/usr/share/smokeping and /var/cache/smokeping/images.

The Apache configuration snippet in /etc/smokeping/apache2.conf (which
should be symlinked into /etc/apache2/conf.d) makes Apache look in the
right place, and upgrades from earlier versions also add a few symlinks
in /var/www to try and keep things working.

I've played around with the 'pathnames' file in /ect/smokeping, but
that didn't seem to work. I browsed from another machine and get the
same results. I also re-installed it.  I"m using the smokeping
version available from apt-get sources, and version is 2.3.6-5
Reinstalling it probably doesn't change anything. If you're prepared to
lose the measurement data, you might want to try 'dpkg --purge smokeping'
(which removes all the config files and data) and reinstalling afterwards.
HTH,
Barry
