[rrd-users] Re: Graphing...

[Cesare Tensi]

Todd,

thanks for the tips about managing error code, at this time I'm implementing
those control around the scripts for looking errors and strange behavior.

About the problem I had, the solution was very simple, the trick is around
the "timelocal" system call. The "timelocal" need in input the "$sec, $min,
$hour, $mday, $month, $year" and output is number of second from 1/Jan/1970
(used for RRD::update).

The code was:

$yesterday_begin = timelocal(0, 0, 0, $1, $2, $3-1900);
$yesterday_end   = timelocal(59, 59, 23, $1, $2, $3-1900);

The variable "$month" start at "0" for January, "1" for February and so on..
I forget to add a "-1" on variable $2, because the variable "$yesterday"
contains, for example, "19-06-2003". So, the two variable "$yesterday_begin"
and "$yesterday_end" contains number of second passed from 1/Jan/1970 plus 1
month later...

The new code is:

$yesterday_begin = timelocal(0, 0, 0, $1, $2-1, $3-1900);
$yesterday_end   = timelocal(59, 59, 23, $1, $2-1, $3-1900);

The output, with old code, was right but graphing nothing because on RRD
database there was null data... :)
