We attempted to get the silk and flowviewer installed correctly but it appears we have not. I pointed a flow to our server and appears it is not collecting or not sure where it is going. The flowviewer tell me it should be in /VAR/Flows but I do not even have this directory. I am looking for help now.

I need someone to help with the flowviewer installation, i have already configure the flow-tools and silk, i tested flow-tools through flow-capture scripts. I can capture but i can not graph it or render it on the flowviewer.
Are you getting any hints from your web server logs? Could be a
permissions problem.

Did you use the 'rwflowpack_start' script in the /tools subdirectory?
