Subject: [mrtg] SRVANY issue? (Newbie Alert)
I just installed the latest version of MRTG, and active perl (as of
2-10-2005) on a w2k standard server. I believe I have followed the
instructions in the :
mrtg-nt-guide
document to the letter.
My registry entries exist, mrtg is in C:\mrtg , srvany, instsrv, pslist,
pskill, all is in place.
My pressing problem is, that mrtg service, though supposedly running, once
first started, the graph is updated, then, it never runs again.
Here are a few things I noticed that might shed a light on what is wrong. I
have googled and found no posts about this, so it makes me think it is
something I did wrong.
Anyway, I ran it, it installed the service, I put the reg file (cat and
pasted), verified the info in the registry matches the info on the document.
I started the service and my graph was updated.
I check pslist | grep perl, ps list | grep MRTG and nothing exists. (srvany
is running)
I have seem some postings that the writer must be placing perl into the
registry and using srvany to launch perl.
Here is what I saw:
C:\MRTG\bin>perl c:\mrtg\bin\mrtg --logging=eventlog c:\mrtg\config\mrtg.cfg
Use of uninitialized value in subroutine entry at
C:/Perl/site/lib/Win32/Eventg.pm line 73.
Argument "Started mrtg with config 'c:\\mrtg\\config\\mrtg.cfg'\n" isn't
numer in subroutine entry at C:/Perl/site/lib/Win32/EventLog.pm line 46.
Use of uninitialized value in subroutine entry at
C:/Perl/site/lib/Win32/Eventg.pm line 199.
Argument "WARN" isn't numeric in subroutine entry at
C:/Perl/site/lib/Win32/EvtLog.pm line 199.
(graph was not updated)
Removing the --logging=eventlog and it works.
Using wperl instead of perl works with the --logging=eventlog option
C:\MRTG\bin>wperl c:\mrtg\bin\mrtg --logging=eventlog
c:\mrtg\config\mrtg.cfg
(graph was updated)
My mrtg.bat file (in c:\mrtg\bin) currently only looks like this:
C:\Perl\bin\perl c:\mrtg\bin\mrtg c:\mrtg\config\mrtg.cfg
I also tried:
C:\Perl\bin\wperl c:\mrtg\bin\mrtg c:\mrtg\config\mrtg.cfg
Either one updates the graph, but perl is never left runnin in pslist:
C:\MRTG\bin>pslist

I suspect I am supooed to somehow get perl as a service running also, but
haven't found a newgroup posting, wb site, or faq that adrresses my issue.
Please point me to the corect document that I have not read, so I can get
this going.
Thank-you!
