Hi,
I had the same problem, bindgraph didn't create any images.
After calling the script with
http://www.example.com/cgi-bin/bindgraph.cgi/bindgraph_1.png I received
the error
ERROR:
RRDs::graph(/var/cache/bindgraph/,cgi-bin,bindgraph.cgi/bindgraph_1.png.tmp,
...): Garbage ': Fri Sep 28 19:38:00 2007 graph created on Fri Sep 28
19:45:53 2007\r' after command:
COMMENT:last update: Fri Sep 28 19:38:00 2007 graph created on Fri
Sep 28 19:45:53 2007\r"
Asking google showed that rrdtool 1.2 doesn't like lines #109 and #110
containing the "COMMENT" parameter as they do contain colons.
After commenting out the lines the graphs were finally created.
I changed bindgraph.cgi to correctly include the comments again (see
attached patch).
The patch works for me but may not work for everybody.
Installed packages:
* bindgraph 0.2-5
* rrdtool 1.2.15-0.3
System: 4.0/stable
Regards,
Juergen
