NCV handler problem
list Matti Klock
Hello, I have an extension script called "send" that produces output containing "seconds: <foo>", which I pass through the NCV handler to create a graph. This works fine. The problem comes when I add a link to the graph to the end of send's output. It looks similar to <a href="http://$BBDISP/hobbit-cgi/stuff">;. The graph appears on the test page, but data stops being collected, and rrd-status.log fills up with errors: 2005-09-30 03:30:42 RRD error creating /var/lib/hobbit/rrd/host/send.rrd: Duplicate DS name: http I tried adding "http:NONE" to NCV_send in hobbitserver.cfg, and I tried replacing the colon in "http://"; with %3A. Both actions changed the errors to this: 2005-09-30 03:44:39 RRD error creating /var/lib/hobbit/rrd/host /send.rrd: Duplicate DS name: 127001hobbitcgihobb Is there a better way to get the NCV handler to ignore the colon in http://? I'm running the snapshot from 21 Sep 2005 right now. Thank you! Matti

Never mind, I figured it out. I'm having the same problem as Mario Andre did on 23 Sep. The NCV handler appears to have two bugs. First, it captures data of the form <name>:<string>, as well as of the form <name>:<number>; second, it reads beyond the end of the message sometimes, producing some really bewildering errors in rrd-status.log. This small patch fixed both problems, for what it's worth. Thanks, Matti

Looks correct, applied. Thanks! Henrik
