Title: Re: [smokeping-users] graphs missing after upgrade to Ubuntu Server 13.10
Here's my "canned" response.
See:

Smokeping usual faults:

Graphs are empty!

These have two root causes:

1) Data not reaching the RRD [round robin databases]
Run smokeping in debug mode and watch what it says - you'll probably find some good reasons stuff isn't working and be able to fix it yourself.
Like this: smokeping --debug

2) Data is hitting the RRD's as confirmed by --debug. However, you still get an empty graph from the browser.

You see: the user smokeping is running as, is writing the data - that's often root or smokeping. However, the thing that's creating the graphs has to read the data - and that's whatever process your web-server is running as. That's often apache or www, httpd or www-data.

tl;dr

So provided you're sure that the RRD's are getting the data [not in evidence, but I'll assume you know that, at least for now...] is Apache able to get to the RRD's. [Does it have rights?]

Hello all:
 
After upgrading my Ubuntu server this morning to 13.10, all of my smokeping graphs are showing up as broken links.  The web log on the server show 404 errors:

Is there somewhere I need to adjust a path?  It seems like the files are there in /usr/share/smokeping/www/images/
 
I looked in the pathnames file and those paths seem to check out as well:
 
root@s42090:/usr/share/smokeping/www/images/LIDAR_APs# cat /etc/smokeping/config.d/pathnames
sendmail = /usr/sbin/sendmail
imgcache = /var/cache/smokeping/images
imgurl   = ../smokeping/images
datadir  = /var/lib/smokeping
piddir  = /var/run/smokeping
smokemail = /etc/smokeping/smokemail
tmail = /etc/smokeping/tmail
 
Thanks in advance.
