Adam, So while I've been building another server, I noticed that after I add a new device to observum via the web gui, it is displayed in the devices, but after 30 minutes, it still hasn't been polled or discovered. Would this indicate that my cron jobs aren't running as they should be? Last question about this, I promise.
Thanks, Jason

Well, it seems to definitely be correctly updating and running the poller.
If your RRDs are being created, then there are no permissions issues (poller runs as root anyways). I really can't see why it's not working, unless your crontab entries are not being run.
If you want to give me access to t
he
server, I can fix and tell everyone what you did wrong! ;P

Well, one last attempt before building aga
in
using vmware instead of hyper-v so I can copy/paste the install guide… Here is the output of clicking on “Data” for a device’s port. This has traffic bandwidth info displayed in viewing all ports of the device, but again, only has
“-nan” for data.
To me it looks like the data it needs I there, but maybe I’m missing something? I also just removed the mysql database, deleted the rrd directory, re-created rrd, chown’d it to www-data:www-data, and
recreated the database per the install page, and copied config.php.default over to config.php again. This should be a fresh start for permissions and graphing that we’ve been discussing correct?

Adam, the Community version is now different. You just have to CHMOD the RRD directory.
Remove SNMP if it applies (as per the guide). But the CHMOD 755 on RRD wasn’t in the guide.

Which version of Ubuntu?
The install guide is copy&paste idiot proof, pretty much!

Ok, so I know my graphing issus are permissions related, and I’ve
checked the rrd folder permissions / tried adjusting them with solutions given to other people with graphing problems. I’m still unable to get anything other than “-nan” into the graphs.
-All graphs write, but no data is displayed.
-Realtime graphs display data
-Traffic stats is being displayed in the “Ports” tab for my devices.
Install Info:
-During last setup/install I enabled root user and installed everything under root. (Was a last ditch effort and I’ll change / redo
after I get this working at least once…)
-rrd folder has root:root listed with “ls -la” output. (I tried using www-data:ww-data, Observium:root, et
c with
no success.)
-cron jobs (not using e-tab) had user “root” listed exactly like in the install guide. /etc/cron.d/Observium Currently has no user listed, but it made no difference that I can see.
Today I updated to version 4836 and had “no auth” displayed in the device graphs previews, which I hadn’t ever seen before. Seems like it was something that changed from 4811 to 4836 as I hadn’t made any
other changes. However, I still only get –nan in the data fields, which furthers my belief that I’m missing something having to do with folder permissions.
Can someone give a list of folders that need to have specific
permissions set? And if you’re feeling REALLY generous, maybe even what the permissions should be with knowing that everything was installed using the root user? I’d really love to move past this and start testing Observium!

No, that is correct.
Some people insist on trying to pu

in a user cron file with crontab -e, very common error, hence the big red box!

Not sure if you meant cron jobs instead of from jobs, but it seems like you may have. I followed the instructions:
Add cron jobs, create a new file /etc/cron.d/observium with the following contents:

Please note that the below example includes a username, so will only work in /etc/crontab or /etc/cron.d/observium. It will NOT work in a user crontab edited with crontab -e.

So these

First, I must apologize for yet another question about “graphs not working”. However, I have read everything I can find in the mail
archives, in forums, and have reinstalled multiple times following the instructions exactly. Each time with the –nan listed for all data points. Verified permissions on the rrd and tmp folders and both match
the same user/group as what everything is running as. I eventually resorted to installing and running everything as root to try and resolve permission errors. Once I figure out what’s wrong I’ll go back to std user. Sorry for the long email, but I wanted to include
everything I know so far.
Monitoring Host:
Ubuntu 13.04
Observium 13.12.4811
Virtual Machine on Hyper-V
Currently Monitored Devices:
3 HP Procurve Switches
1 Ricoh Copier
2 Sonicwall Firewalls
Testing results thus far:
Real-time graphing works for each device.
Every other graph is drawn, but has “-nan” for each data point.
Same for each device.
- Prior to installing jpgraph (to get billing to work) all devices
did not list traffic data under the Ports tab.
- Post jpgraph install and config, traffic info under Ports tab works
for Ricoh Copier and 1 of 3 HP Procurve switches, but no other devices.
Only 0 bps is listed.
- Enabled rrdcached in the config file with adding
$config['rrdcached'] = "unix:/var/run/rrdcached.sock";.
- Ran discovery and polling for everything again and all devices list
stats for traffic under Ports tab.
Billing still doesn’t capture traffic data on any device.
Billing Accurate Gr
aphs
gives an error of 25121 – “Empty input data array specified for plot. Must have at least one data point.”
I believe billing errors may be related to the rest.
I ran discovery and polling in debug mode writing to text files and it
appears that the data is being pulled from the device correctly. It also looks like it writes the data into the rrd device file and updates the mysql database without showing any errors. Thus, I’m perplexed as to what it could be and have no direction to look into…
Help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Jason
