Hello
I'm having a small problem with perfmon
I've followed the instructions on
http://perfparse.sourceforge.net/docs.php
to the letter...

I've set up the crontab job as:
# Run PerfParse every 15 minutes to update Nagios graphs.
15 * * * * /usr/local/nagios/bin/perfparse.sh


but all I get is the following and no data is building upp in the DB.
why ? what ? why????
