I am pulling my hair out trying to get the slave graphs to update on
the master server.<br>
<br>
I have ran the debug on the slave and can it executing the probe and
sending the data to the master. apparently the server acknowledges
it, but nothing appears on the webpage.<br>
<br>
<br>
This is how the apache and smokeping process run:<br>
<small># ps -ef | grep apache<br>
root 987 1 0 22:45 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2
-k start<br>
www-data 989 987 0 22:45 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2
-k start<br>
www-data 991 987 0 22:45 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2
-k start<br>
www-data 992 987 0 22:45 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2
-k start<br>
<br>
# ps -ef | grep smokeping<br>
106 1706 1 0 23:05 ? 00:00:00
/usr/sbin/smokeping [FPing]<br>
</small><br>
There is nothing in /var/log/syslog to suggest why this is not
working.<br>
<br>
There is however these in /var/log/apache2/error.log. The problem is
that those files don't exist<br>
