[rrd-users] script help

[Neil Calvert]

Hi all,

I've been working on a graph generation script for the last couple days
and it's starting to make me tear my hair out. Every time I run this
script, I get a core dump error. The core file is produced by the
script, not by rrdtool, so I think the problem is in my syntax
somewhere..

I was hoping someone could take a look at the command and tell me if I'm
doing something wrong. The script takes in 7 arguments :

rrd_frame_graph_generator <dbase file> <TRAFFIC|STATUS|ERROR|CONGESTION>
<bandwidth in bits> <CIR in bits> <HOUR|DAY|WEEK|MONTH|YEAR> <output
filename> <output title>

I run it with the DAY option and it coredumps. This is the command line
from the case statement that is run when I select Day. The command line
syntax I am using is

rrd_frame_graph_generator /path to rrd/rrd_file.rrd TRAFFIC 56000 32000
DAY /path to output file/output.filename "Output title"

When I use that exact syntax with the other cases (Hour,Week,Month,Year)
it works fine so I am thinking it is something in theday statement.
Could someone check it out and let me know if I'm doing something wrong?
