Hi Eric,<br>
<br>
Would you please keep the correspondence on the list? Then it's there<br>
in the archives for everyone to benefit from. (Always assuming there's<br>
any benefit to be had of course:)<br>

Now we need to see what's in the Apache error log for that request.<br>
Make sure the clock on your machine is correct. That's crucial in any<br>
server. Use NTP if possible. Make a note of the exact time when you<br>
make the request and then you can check what was written in the log at<br>
that time, so you don't have to guess what was written when.<br>

I don't follow this. There must be more to a config file than that.<br>
What is it called? Where is it?<br>
<br>
Have you gone through the installation documentation on the Smokeping<br>
Website to make sure you've taken all the necessary steps? If there<br>
are any steps you don't understand then do make that clear, it's not<br>
a time for glossing over anything you're not sure about and there's<br>
plenty of room to take wrong turnings. Systems can be very different,<br>
for example one system might have Apache stuff in /var/www and another<br>
might have the same stuff in /usr/local - don't feel bad about being<br>
somewhat confused at first.<br>
