It sounds like you have an error in the configuration file.

It works now, i think it was because of perl. cuz i reinstalled it, and then … bang … it is working
Now I want to know something else (if it is posible) …. i want to personalize the mail that I recive from smokeping, to be more friendly, cuz’ i want to put a person to receive the mail and he doesn’t how to interprete the results, and to add some other text.

Thanks!

Try this some of the suggestions in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=304085 and check that rrdtool installed correctly. I don’t believe I came across this error with my installs.

Hi Martin,
I had no problem with imgurl being remote… I’ve lost my bash history for the install now so not sure about cropper.

Thanks

works well! I would change:

to > imgurl = http://smoke.pipeten.co.uk/smokeping/img

to this:

to > imgurl = http://some.url/smokeping/img

Thanks!

hello,

2 mistakes

cropper installation is missing
imgurl must point to the local webserver

regards
