One thing I just noticed when looking at the python module is the first thing it tries to do is this:
import collectd And when I try and do that manually I get this: >>> import collectd Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named collectd Is that a module that needs to be installed on my system or is that something that is "passed down" when this python module is loaded?

I am trying to use this python plugin : https://github.com/sebest/collectd-mongodb. I have it configured in collectd and it is actually sending mongo related metrics however they don't seem to be correct based on some manual correlation that I've done. I also get this error when starting up collectd with this plugin enabled: [root@mongo6 ~]# /etc/init.d/collectd restart Stopping collectd: [ OK ] Starting collectd: Parse error in file `/etc/collectd.d/mongodb.py', line 1302 near `<newline>': syntax error, unexpected EOL yyparse returned error #1 configfile: Cannot read file `/etc/collectd.d/mongodb.py'. Parse error in file `/etc/collectd.d/mongodb.pyc', line 1319 near `>': syntax error, unexpected CLOSEBRAC yyparse returned error #1 configfile: Cannot read file `/etc/collectd.d/mongodb.pyc'. .():():.=.=.=.=[,].=.=.=.=.=.=(,,,,=)::='%-%'%(.,):=(.)=.()[ OK ]=.=[,].()():=(=.,=.,=)=[.[]]..:.(.,.)=.('')=['']=() Here is the snipet from my collectd.conf file where I enable the plugin: <Plugin python> ModulePath "/etc/collectd.d/" Import "mongodb" <Module mongodb> Host "127.0.0.1" Port 26019 Database "i19" "local" </Module> </Plugin> Does anyone have any idea what might be causing that error? I tried submitting a bug report directly on the github page for the project but haven't gotten any response in a couple of weeks. I was about to give up on this when I saw a recent posting to this mailing list saying that someone was able to get this plugin working. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Dan
