Re: [Perfparse-users] configure options

[Ben C. <BCl...@pe...>]

Veiko,

You may need to search for some of these.  If I give you some sample 
files to look for.  Please let us know.

The --with-imagedir image directory should contain the Nagios images, 
shared by PerfParse.  Try doing a search for some of these:

flapping.gif
tacenabled.jpg
sbgeneral.png

The cgi --with-cgidir should contain at least these:

history.cgi
statuswml.cgi
extinfo.cgi

The --with-http_image_path is the browser http path to the above image 
directory.  Check what Nagios uses, look at the source of the HTML...

The --prefix is used to locate the nagios 'etc' and nagios 'var' 
directories.  Which will contain nagios.cfg and nagios.log respectively. 
  If these are not in a common subdirectory or not called 'etc' and 
'var' then I believe you can use:

	--sysconfdir   (for dir containing nagios.cfg)
	
I am not sure of the directive for the final 'var' directory containing 
serviceperf.log.  Maybe Yves might know?  However, this file can be 
specified exactly in the perfparse.cfg.  So not needed.  Compile code 
and edit perfparse.cfg.

Let us know,

Ben.
