[mrtg] Re: Hello all,

[Roberts, Larry]

The only way that I know to fix it is to build MRTG from the source code. If
you follow the unix guides, its really hard to mess up.
I do very little work with RPM's so I don't have a clue how to check what
the problem may be in those cases.



Thanks

Larry

Denny, Check out the thread entitled: [mrtg] Re: MRTG running, but no PNG
graphs. You will see the *identical* problem there. Also, there are a few
more threads as well, all with that one version of MRTG.

I haven't seen a solution show up yet. If anyone has figured it out, PLEASE
POST! Thanks!

Hello all,

I upgraded my MRTG to:

rpm -q mrtg
mrtg-2.9.25-1.7.2

and now when mrtg runs it outputs these errors:

gd-png:  fatal libpng error: Invalid filter type specified gd-png error:
setjmp returns error condition

My versions for libpng and gd are:
# rpm -q libpng
libpng-1.2.2-6

# rpm -q gd
gd-1.8.4-9

This is all run on a RedHat 7.2 server.  Everything worked as expected (as
far as collection and graph generation goes) - but the old version of MRTG
was doing weird stuff with the data and the graphs were (falsely) showing
massive network outages on my OC3, OC12, and GiGE ports - hence the idea to
upgrade.

I guess my next step is to upgrade perl?

It's currently at

# rpm -q perl
perl-5.6.0-17

I'm a bit at a loss here.......  being a perl wannabe and all...  :(

Any help would be greatly appreciated....

Meanwhile I'll get the sources for all the above and try a compile and
install approach.....  who knows.....
