I built rrdtool 1.0.50 (not ready to try 1.2 yet) and installed it and this
problem "went away."

Thanks for reading.

OK, here's a clue. But why is this happening?  I did a little edit of
/usr/local/bin/mrtg to get some more debugging info out of it:


s00c120# mrtg --debug=log SSA-RICHM-VA-WDD204_single_mrtg.conf
--log: Called:
RRDs::tune(/data/mrtg/R/ssa-richm-va-wdd204_processor_1_mem.rrd -a

number???

ERROR: Cannot 'fetch' /data/mrtg/R/ssa-richm-va-wdd204_processor_1_mem.rrd:
start time: did you really mean month 9193096?

Where did that HUGE number come from for rrdtool last?
Here it is from the command line:

s00c120# rrdtool last /data/mrtg/R/ssa-richm-va-wdd204_processor_1_mem.rrd
1127747083

Looks pretty normal to me.....

XXXXXX?"

Two machines set up identically--at least they are supposed to be set up
identically.  Given the behavior described below I have my doubts.

When I run "mrtg ssa-richm-va-wdd204_mrtg.conf" on machine A I get no output
indicating the command succeeded.  When I run it on machine B I get this
error:

ERROR: Cannot 'fetch' /data/mrtg/R/ssa-richm-va-wdd204_processor_1_mem.rrd:
start time: did you really mean month 9488720?

My environment:

Solaris 8
Mrtg 2.10.15
Rrdtool 1.0.49
Perl 5.8.7 on B 5.8.5 on A


I trussed them both. Output may or may not be relevant.

Machine B (the broken one) gives this

open("/data/mrtg/R/ssa-richm-va-wdd204_processor_1_mem.rrd", O_RDONLY) = 5
fstat64(5, 0xFFBEF6D8)                          = 0

Machine A (at what I think is the same spot in processing):

open("/data/mrtg/R/ssa-richm-va-wdd204_processor_1_mem.rrd", O_RDONLY) = 6
fstat64(6, 0xFFBEF740)                          = 0
ioctl(6, TCGETA, 0xFFBEF6CC)                    Err#25 ENOTTY

llseek(6, 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFEAEC, SEEK_CUR)         = 2796
close(6)                                        = 0
time()                                          = 1127743469
time()                                          = 1127743470
time()                                          = 1127743470
time()                                          = 1127743470

Anyone have any idea what is happening here?
