[mrtg] Re: Set MRTG to run and give debug messages

[Dowling, Steve]

It's in the mrtg code itself.  Go looking for:...

@main::DEBUG=qw();
# DEBUG TARGETS
# cfg  - watch the config file reading
# dir  - directory mangeling
# base - basic program flow
# tarp - target parser
# snpo - snmp polling
# fork - forking view
# time - some timing info
# log  - logging of data via rateup or rrdtool

...(or reasonable facsimile thereof).  Insert the type of debugging you
need in the brackets.  (I've only found the need for DEBUG=qw(base),
myself).  You'll need to restart mrtg for the change to take effect.
Then you'll need to restart (again!) when you want to remove DEBUG....

Subject: [mrtg] Set MRTG to run and give debug messages


I read somewhere that there was some flag that could be set to make mrtg
run 
in debug mode. For example, if it gets no values from certain queries it
logs 
or emails to root. I can't seem to find this on the MRTG web page or the

archives. Does anyone know/remember this offhand?
