[rrd-users] Re: Funky MRTG message

[PAUL WILLIAMSON]

I am betting your MRTG instance is taking 5 minutes 
and 59 seconds to complete.

Split the configuration file into two and stagger the start times.
This error usually indicates you still have an MRTG process 
reading the configuration file (usually the end of it), while a 
new process is starting up but can't read the config file because 
the previous version still has the file locked for reading.

Please people, I know it has nothing about rrd, mas its bothering me so
much.

Some times MRTG sends a mail to root like that: 

ERROR: I guess another mrtg is running. A lockfile
(/etc/mrtg/entidades_externas/ENT_EXT_DF.cfg_l) aged
59 seconds is hanging around. If you are sure that no other mrtg
is running you can remove the lockfile

I opened /etc/crond and found nothing running another mrtg.
Someone knows how many ways I have to make MRTG stop with these messages ?

Thanks a lot,

Davi
