rrdcached errors: found extra data

[rajasegar]

So everything looks OK.

Let's check the version of rrdtool:

Code: Select all

rrdtool

I noticed this in /var/log/messages, segfault for rrdcached but it started normally when I executed service rrdcached start. It is running

Just to double check, if you enable the RRD_DAEMON_OPTS in the /usr/local/nagios/etc/pnp/process_perfdata.cfg and restart the npcd service does the same problem occur?

I'm interested in seeing the logs output with RRD_DAEMON_OPTS enabled.

Code: Select all

It was working fine for ages, it was just when I installed the script and its dependency and ran it , it stopped.
yum install perl-RRD-Simple -y could be the culprit.

Will try to send you the logs later.

OK so it's reporting rrdtool 1.3.8 and it needs to be 1.4.4.

Following this document:
http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... ios_XI.pdf

For some reason rrdtool-1.4.4.tar.gz is not being downloaded/upgraded.

Line 114 in the xi-rrdcached.sh script is downloading this file:
wget http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/pub/rrdtool-1.4.4.tar.gz

If for some reason the server cannot download this file, download it and transfer it to the XI server into the same directory as the xi-rrdcached.sh script. Comment out line 114 and then re-run the script and it should fix the problem.

Please escalate to have this script fixed
wget http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... dcached.sh

Problems
1) rrdtool-1.4.4.tar.gz is not a .gz file, it is actually a tar file
2) Line 143: tar -xzf rrdtool-1.4.4.tar.gz fails because it is expecting a gz file.
3) Line 145: directory /tmp/rrdtool-1.4.4 is hard coded so it fails when it is run from anywhere else.

Thanks.

It is working fine now.

I'll pass this along to QA and see what all else might need to be updated.

Other than that are we clear to close this?
