Smokeping usage and install problems: The problems boil down to;
1) Smokeping itself [or more clearly, the user smokeping is running as - and remember it may run as root at the CLI, but as something different when started by the system] can't write to the RRDs or the directory where the RRD's are to be stored. 2) The web-server can't *read* the RRD's because it doesn't have rights. [far less common, but the same base issue] 3) In master/slave setups - the slaves [via the web-server] can't write to the RRD's - because the web-server doesn't have rights to the RRDs. These errors are so common, ti would be nice to have a small script that would run a quick audit/check on all permissions! I have an install that ran fine for years, and then on a system & Tomcat upgrade now has permissions problems - .cgi access permissions denied.
