Hi Gary and George

Followed the guide at http://www.litespeedtech.com/support/wiki/doku.php?id=litespeed_wiki:rrd_graph_monitoring for WHM/Cpanel based Litespeed 4.1.9 VPS and seem to get an error maybe to do with different rrdtool install/location ?

WHM/Cpanel rrdtool install

/scripts/rrdtoolinstall
RRDtool 1.4.5 is up to date.

If i manually run the command

/usr/local/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp5 /path/to/ls_stats/update.php

get errors

/usr/local/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp5 /path/to/ls_stats/update.php
#!/usr/bin/php

Seems getting CRON emails every minute now.. there's a logger_mail.class.php so how to disable emails ?

 

[NiteWave]

thanks. please try:

modify
/path/to/ls_stats/config/log.php
'logger' => new logger_syslog(),
to
'logger' => new logger_file("/tmp/rrdtool.log"),

 

[eva2000]

tried that but seems still sending emails and the log is empty

there seems to be a log.php.000 and log.php.001 file too ?

 

[NiteWave]

will delete those 2 files in package

please check if file /tmp/rrdtool.log is writable -- it will be updated by cron job.

 

[eva2000]

chmod 0666 /tmp/rrdtool.log

didn't help still sending emails

Seems getting CRON emails every minute now

this rrdgraph add-on itself don't send out email.

it looks your cron job send out email once the rrdgraph job runs(it runs once / 1 minute). it may relate to your linux's setting. no email ever received per our tests.

 

[eva2000]

strange i have several other custom cron jobs added and not one of them sends out email themselves.. will double check

 

[NiteWave]

maybe in cron job:
* * * * * $PHP_BIN $DEST_DIR/ls_stats/update.php

add > /dev/null, i.e.,
* * * * * $PHP_BIN $DEST_DIR/ls_stats/update.php > /dev/null

will disable email.

 

[eva2000]

that was it need to update instructions from rrdgraph_install.php

from

* * * * * /usr/local/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp5 /path/to/ls_stats/update.php

to

* * * * * /usr/local/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp5 /path/to/ls_stats/update.php >/dev/null 2>&1

 

[NiteWave]

updated the package.

* * * * * $PHP_BIN $DEST_DIR/ls_stats/update.php > /dev/null
is recommended.

this will redirect STDOUT only to /dev/null, but not STDERR.
so if there is any error message to STDERR, e.g., "/path/to/lsphp5" is deleted for
some reason, you'll receive an warning email from logwatch.

Ok.. updated my cron job
