Hi Adam,

I've got the following in my /etc/cron.d/observium:

33 */6 * * * root /opt/observium/discovery.php -h all >> /dev/null 2>&1 */5 * * * * root /opt/observium/discovery.php -h new >> /dev/null 2>&1 */5 * * * * root /opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 1 >> /dev/null 2>&1

And syslog does state that these are running.

If I go to one of the graphs that is not displaying, it states:

"No RRD information returned. This may be because the graph module doesn't yet return this data."

And clicking on the "RRD Files Used" states that the device is neither polled or discovered.

I've run:

php ./discovery.php -h all php ./discovery.php -h new

But I'm not 100% sure what signifies success with this!

Cheers,

Tim

It's likely your poller isn't actually being run.

Hi all,

I am having problems with generating graphs for my Observium install. What I have managed to find out is that that the system executes the following command:

rrdtool graph /tmp/C9DwA903iBza9yzw.png --alt-autoscale-max --rigid -E --start 1390482368 --end 1390568768 --width 1159 --height 300 -c BACK#EEEEEE00 -c SHADEA#EEEEEE00 -c SHADEB#EEEEEE00 -c FONT#000000 -c CANVAS#FFFFFF00 -c GRID#a5a5a5 -c MGRID#FF9999 -c FRAME#5e5e5e -c ARROW#5e5e5e -R normal --font LEGEND:8:'DejaVuSansMono' --font AXIS:7:'DejaVuSansMono' --font-render-mode normal COMMENT:'Bits/s Cur Avg Max' COMMENT:'Total' COMMENT:'n' CDEF:inB= CDEF:outB= CDEF:octets=inB,outB,+ CDEF:doutB=outB,-1,* CDEF:inbits=inB,8,* CDEF:outbits=outB,8,* CDEF:bits=inbits,outbits,+ CDEF:doutbits=doutB,8,* VDEF:95thin=inbits,95,PERCENT VDEF:95thout=outbits,95,PERCENT VDEF:d95thout=doutbits,5,PERCENT VDEF:totin=inB,TOTAL VDEF:avein=inbits,AVERAGE VDEF:totout=outB,TOTAL VDEF:aveout=outbits,AVERAGE VDEF:tot=octets,TOTAL COMMENT:' n' HRULE:999999999999999#FFFFFF:'Total In ': GPRINT:inbits:LAST:%5.2lf%s GPRINT:inbits:AVERAGE:%5.2lf%s GPRINT:inbits:MAX:%5.2lf%s GPRINT:totin:%5.2lf%sB COMMENT:'n' HRULE:999999999999990#FFFFFF:' Out': GPRINT:outbits:LAST:%5.2lf%s GPRINT:outbits:AVERAGE:%5.2lf%s GPRINT:outbits:MAX:%5.2lf%s GPRINT:totout:%5.2lf%sB COMMENT:'n' HRULE:999999999999990#FFFFFF:' Agg': GPRINT:bits:LAST:%5.2lf%s GPRINT:bits:AVERAGE:%5.2lf%s GPRINT:bits:MAX:%5.2lf%s GPRINT:tot:%5.2lf%sB COMMENT:'n' HRULE:0#999999

The error returned is:

RRDTool Output: ERROR: String ends after the = sign on 'CDEF:inB='

I would imagine this is a config issue but I am not sure where to look. Any help would be gratefully received!

Hey Tim,

Try to run it as: Sudo ./discovery.php -h all Sudo ./poller.php -h all

See if your manual output is any different. If that works: Chmod 755 discovery.php Chmod 755 poller.php

I honestly forget if there is a way to debug the discovery or poller but I think there is. I tried a little searching and I cannot find it.D: Perhaps someone here knows.

Hi Tim,

Your poller is definitely not running.

It's difficult to diagnose why, though.

Thanks for all your help and advice. Did a bit more digging. Seems the debug output was giving me this:

Ports : DEBUG: SNMP Auth options = -v2c -c 'public' /usr/bin/snmpbulkwalk -v2c -c 'public' -OQUs -m IF-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs 'udp':'localhost':'161' ifDescr ifDescr = No Such Object available on this agent at this OID

I wanted to check that SNMP had access to all this and saw that the following line was commented out:

rocommunity public localhost

Whereas before, all I had was:

rocommunity public default -V systemonly

I uncommented it and now my graphs are working.

Thanks again for all your help. This really isn't my field so thanks for your patience. Now to configure Observium to monitor Apache and MySQL...! (Don;t be surpirsed if I post to this list again!)

Cheers,

Tim
