Hi,
We have Ganglia up and running for a couple of months and now installed
gmetad 0.1.1 (tried both rpm and from source) but now I am having
problems with running the gmetad script through Perl. Just starting the
gmetad fails with
Not enough arguments for mkdir at sbin/gmetad line 312, near "$dir)"
Execution of sbin/gmetad aborted due to compilation errors.
If I add a "0777" to the mkdir line (which, strangely enough, should not
be necessary according to the Perl docs, though) the script starts but
fails during the socket operations. The log file says
Can't use an undefined value as a symbol reference at sbin/gmetad
line 259.
Can't use an undefined value as a symbol reference at sbin/gmetad
line 525.
It looks like Perl expects some kind of file-descriptor-like identifier
rather than a variable in some places here. If I again replace the
respective parts with what I think is correct ;-) the deamon runs but
doesn't do any output to rrd.
We use Perl 5.005_03. Any idea what is going wrong?
Thanks in advance,
