[smokeping-users] Smokeping error Help please.

Hi Kissima,

Looks like smokeping can't find your RRDtool perl module.

Try adding something like:

use lib qw(/usr/local/rrdtool-1.2.27/lib/perl)

in /usr/local/bin/smokeping, substituting the correct path to your 
rrdtool installation.

It looks like you've installed rrdtool as an RPM package, so you could 
do something like "rpm -ql rrdtool" to find out where the perl module is 
installed.

Regards,
Dan
