    Craig Williams - 2008-10-30

    I am running ifgraph on XP against m0n0wall because my m0n0wall has no hard drive, and runs only from a CD with a floppy for config info. The problem I am having is that ifgraph is producing no graphs, only html files that show a missing image icon where the icon should be. I have followed their config instructions for ifgraph.conf for the m0n0wall interface stuff, but not the path stuff, as that is on XP not m0n0.
    http://doc.m0n0.ch/handbook/thirdparty-ifgraph.html

    Versions of stuff:
    FreeBSD m0n0wall.local 4.11-RELEASE-p13 FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE-p13 #0: Sa i386
    #ifGraph 0.4.10 - Network Interface Data to RRD
    This is perl, v5.8.7
    RRDtool 1.2.28
    Windows XP SP2

    I wish I could attach files here, but I don't see that option, so I'll try to paste everything that may be needed. Thanks!

    Here is the only error when ifgraph is executed:
    ERROR: Cannot parse DS in 'DEF:totalin=c:\progra~1\rrdtool\data/m0n0wall-wan.rrd:octetsin:AVERAGE'
    ERROR: Cannot parse DS in 'DEF:totalin=c:\progra~1\rrdtool\data/m0n0wall-wan.rrd:octetsin:AVERAGE'

      Read on an RRD forum that the "cannot parse DS" error is caused on windows because paths contain ":" colon, and RRD uses colons for delimiters. Changed the rrddir to "\progra~\rrdtool\data" and am now getting a new error. This "bit/sec \l" is part of a huge line of code in makegraph.pl so I think this is definitely an ifgraph problem, no longer RRD.
