Re: [Devmon] Weathermap Status? (using Xymon latest)

Buchan;

This looks even easier than I had anticipated, thanks for saving me from first installing MRTG.

Just a few questions, hopefully you won't mind too much:

1.  I do not have, nor am I able to find, optipng.  Can I simply replace it (within the perl script) with pngcrush?  If now, where and how do I install optipng from?

2.  Within the weathermap.conf, BB is defined as the bb that lives in the ~xymon/client and not the ~xymon/server directory, was this an oversight?  Does it matter?

3.  I've added weathermap to my hobbitlaunch.cfg as follows:

[weathermap]
        ENVFILE $BBHOME/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
        CMD $BBHOME/ext/weathermap
        LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/weathermap.log
        INTERVAL 1m

Looks OK?

4.  What is ICONDIR? Is it the same as the weathermap/images directory?  I have mine set as:

$ICONDIR = "$ENV{'BBHOME'}/etc/weathermap";

Yet, I have no such directory or file.  Should I create one?

Now off to try and understand the weathermap.conf and all of the additional features that are inside of it.

Thanks,

.vadim
