[mrtg] Graphs Resetting & Freezing

[Steve Shipway]

2011-09-12 05:50:25 -- 2011-09-12 05:50:20: WARNING: rateup died from Signal
0
 with Exit Value 1 when doing router 'rejectscnt'
 Signal was 0, Returncode was 1

 

So, rateup is exiting with an error status, which causes MRTG to stop
processing the target.  The problem lies in rateup (so you're using native
mode MRTG, of course).

 

A signal=0 means a normal exit, but returncode=1 means a fail status, so not
a crash.

 

There are a huge number of possible things that can give this exit code -
out of memory, unable to open file, date string too long, filename too long,
unable to write to file,  corrupted backup log file.  Although rateup
produces an output indicating the error it is not preserved by MRTG, I
think.  If you catch the stdout/stderr output of the MRTG run then it may be
in there rather than the logfile.

 

I would check ownerships and permissions on the files and filesystem (is it
read-only?) and check for log file corruption.
