<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I could use some help as I've tried several times in the past to upgrade from 0.103.1 to later versions of Perfparse.&nbsp; I've tried 0.104 and 0.105 and they failed miserably as there seems to be a major change in how MySQL is setup.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">My setup currently has perfparsed running as a daemon, which checks a pipe that is contained in /var/log/nagios/perfdata.pipe.&nbsp; The daemon is started by a script /etc/init.d/perfparsed:</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">/usr/bin/perfparsed -d --enable-mysql-output -U &lt;username&gt; -P &lt;password&gt; -D &lt;database&gt; -H &lt;mysql Host&gt;</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The entry in /etc/nagios/misscommands:</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">/usr/bin/perfparse_nagios_pipe_command.pl /var/log/nagios/perfdata.pipe &quot;$TIMET$&quot; &quot;$HOSTNAME$&quot; &quot;$SERVICEDESC$&quot; &quot;$OUTPUT$&quot; &quot;$SERVICESTATE$&quot; &quot;$PERFDATA$&quot;</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The performance data is written to a pipe which then is read by the daemon, and then entered into the MySQL Database.&nbsp; My question is what is the best method of upgrading?&nbsp; I need this help as Nagios / Perfparse have become somewhat of a success at my company and there are several reports that are generated from the data stored in the mysql database.&nbsp; </FONT></P>
