Hey guys,

 
I'm trying to setup bbmrtg.pl on my server, using the latest version of
mrtg and rrdtool. I've read the perdoc and configured everything
accordingly but whenever I run the script from the command line I get
the following error:

 
bbmrtg.pl: MRTG file -> </opt/hobbit/data/rrd/hostname/hostname_1.rrd>
is invalid

 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 
Thanks

I had similar problems when I set my hobbit server up some time ago and I
would guess that it is a simple permissions problem.

I assume these rrd files do not exist.
You need to run mrtg to create those rrd files. (every 5 minutes or so using
cron)

Are mrtg and hobbit running on the same server, or different servers? RRD is a binary format that is architecture specific.  If you generate the RRDs on a big-endian box you can not open them on a little-endian box without doing an export/import.  I think this is the same with 64bit/32bit as well.

Two (or three) things come to mind.

First -- are all of your other hobbit rrd files in /opt/hobbit/data/rrd/<hostname>? At the very least, you should already have a /opt/hobbit/data/rrd/hostname/tcp.conn.rrd

Second -- if you want hobbit to generate the graph for the mrtg data, the rrd name needs to start with 'mrtg', so your target entry in the mrtg config file should read 'Target[mrtg.hostname_1]' - and note that the target entries need to exist for EACH snmp target on the host, so I'm assuming this is for port 1.

The possible third item -- there may be an issue in mrtg with the underscore. I've got my targets set as 'mrtg.hostname.portxx' with xx being from 00 to whatever the device supports.

If I manualy run the script bbmrtg.pl I see

localhost status mx2.mx2....com green Thu Jun 23 17:08:02 2016

Do you have FQDN set to TRUE in your environment. If not, see if this helps.

Try running with TRON set (to anything not empty) for debugging.
