<DIV>Checking the epoch time also confirms that the files are being updated. There is data in my cache and dyndir directories that corresponds to my targets.</DIV>

<DIV>An interesting development...at 7:52 EDT this morning my graphs started showing data (the process has been running since 6pm EDT yesterday).<BR><BR>>>> "Chris Krough" <chris@krough.org> 1/7/2009 10:15 PM >>><BR>Hmm. I'm not sure, but rrdtool probably pre-populates the records with<BR>NaN when the file is first created, so those NaNs could be from the<BR>file initialization. I see that you verified that the RRDs are being<BR>updated. Did you check the last update time with 'rrdtool last<BR>__filename__' ? That should give you the epoch timestamp of the last<BR>update.

Meaning, if you have a target container of "+Pancakes" in<BR>your config, do the 'dyndir/Pancakes" and "cache/Pancakes" folders<BR>exist.<BR><BR>Chris<BR><BR><BR><BR>On Wed, Jan 7, 2009 at 7:40 PM, Seth Lyons <slyons@fxcm.com> wrote:<BR>> All of those permissions are set according, but still nothing...
