[rrd-users] Re: Help with running remstats

[gab.seun jones.ewulomi]

Hi Thomas,

Have downloaded and compiled it very fine. You just save me from having to 
compile a old version of perl. Thank you very much.

The only problem now is starting the remstats processes using 
./run-remstats2 has you suggested

I get this error in the LAST/LOGs

1)when I invoke the ./run-remstats2 command it just hangs then quits. But 
when I do a ps I see no remstat processes
2)AFAIK All the file have been created under the hosts, data, html etc 
directories.
3)To go to the remstats url index page. typing the http://<ip address of 
server> I presume should take me straight there but all I see is the apache 
test page.

It is saying failed for 'CONFIGCHANGE'. i really dont know what to do with 
that file or what it does

Please any help will me appreciated. I feel so discouraged.

regards,
seun
