RRD Doesn't generate a new DB

OK, so it'll run as the user, but it's not creating rrd files by itself?
Sounds like nothing is getting through to the map file to attempt
translation on, but I could be misunderstanding.
Does your PING service (it's a good example to work with) have the
performance data on? (process_perf_data 1)
Set nagiosgraph.conf debug=5, and tail the log file - you should see stuff
going on all the time if its working. Also tail your perfdata.dat file
(nagios/var) in another console, you should see data dropping in to there
then the file being truncated - give it a while if you don't have many
hosts defined, or the check doesn't run often.
When stuff drops into perfdata.dat, you should see an attempt to process
it nagiosgraph.log - if you get an error like it can't recognise the data,
you need to check your map file:
# Service type: ping
# output:PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 0.00 ms
/output:PING.*?(\d+)%.+?([.\d]+)\sms/
and push @s, [ ping,
[ losspct, GAUGE, $1 ],
[ rta, GAUGE, $2/1000 ] ];
.. is mine, think thats an out of the box setting though, so it should be
OK.
If nothing appears in perfdata.dat, no performance data is being processed
by Nagios - back to the overall config (looks OK to me) and the service
config.
REMEMBER TO SET DEBUG BACK TO 1, IT GROWS BIG QUICK!! (Sorry for Caps,
it's because I forgot to once.:-o..)

RE: RRD Doesn't generate a new DB
I su'd to the nagios user and manually ran the insert.pl. I actually
inserted rrd files into the rrddir. But it isn't updateing on its own.

Whats the security on insert.pl? Can the Nagios user ever run it (try
SU'ing to it if you can)
HTH,
