<p class=MsoNormal>Hello all, and a quick thanks for your help in advance.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have MRTG 2.15.2 running on Windows Server 2003 with
ActivePerl. MRTG is running as a service and produces the first
graph just fine. The problem comes when it’s time to refresh.
MRTG seems to not be overwriting whatever file is necessary to redraw the graph
with current results. I have a total graph for a Cisco3650G
router that adds all traffic from the ports into one graph and then I have
individual graphs for each port. Each graph spikes up and then never goes
down again. I know this to be an error because I have physically
unplugged all ports and the graphs still show over 770MB/min usage. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>If I delete the .png files and restart MRTG, I get the same
graphs as before. After deleting the log files and the .old files and
restarting MRTG, the graphs start at 0 but quickly go to 770MB/min and stay
there. There are no messages in the event log from MRTG.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’m really at a loss here. My config file has 28
interfaces (24 + 4 upload ports) for each of 5 routers, and then the addition
of all in and out traffic for the first 24 ports combined on one graph. I’ve
taken the combined port graph out of the .cfg file and have the same results on
random ports (no one port is doing this constantly). <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> I used cfgCreator to create the .cfg file. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Here is a sample of my .cfg file. I’ve included
one section for an individual port and one for the total traffic. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.<o:p></o:p></p>
