Could it be that there isn't any data to add to the rrd?  Here is the
rrd insert.pl  ran manually then nagios runs it automatically.

No, perflog is your perfdata.dat file, where the performance data gets 
dumped - bit confusing I think..


# Location of performance data file. Comment out it not used.
perflog = /usr/local/nagios/var/perfdata.dat

.. from my nagiosgraph.conf

Is the perflog the same file as the service_perfdata_file?

Nagiosgraph.cfg: perflog = /var/adm/logs/nagios/service-perfdata:q!
 


Nagios.cfg: service_perfdata_file=/var/adm/logs/nagios/service-perfdata

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..)

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,
