lpar2rrd vmware dashboard empty nan and permission denied

chrisma44

Hello,

I have a problem with lpar2rrd. Communication with the Vcenter is OK, it reports infrastructure information well but the graphics are empty with no information.

Vcenter 7.0 / LPAR2RRD version 7.40 / VMware-vSphere-Perl-SDK-7.0.0-16453907.x86_64.tar

I noticed several types of errors:

In the logs from Gui, there are many permission denied on folders.

Thank you for your help.

I manually executed load_vmware.sh and it seems to have fixed some of the issues.

I still have this error and some page are empty.

Everything is back to normal except :

If you still do not see the graphs then

send us logs:

Note a short problem description in the text field of the upload form.

cd /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd # or where is your LPAR2RRD working dir

tar cvhf logs.tar logs tmp/*txt

gzip -9 logs.tar

Send us logs.tar.gz via https://upload.lpar2rrd.com

I sent you the logs.

I noticed that there is no cron job for vmware on lpar2rrd, is it normal ?

GUI is never updated.

Hi

crontab is ok,

the problem is, that many dirs ( & files) in data/ are not owned by lpar2rrd

change the ownership

ls -lL /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/data

There really should't be any files owned by root. Lpar2rrd cannot access them in that case.

find . -exec ls -l {} \; | grep root

Almost everything is root.

Should I change owner in /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/data only ?

Jindra

Everything should be lpar2rrd

/home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/ data etc html logs tmp www

Pavel

under root:

cd /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd

rm logs/error-cgi.log

chown -R lpar2rrd .

Pavel

well, better last cmd like this, above one would not have to work in all scenarios:

chown -R lpar2rrd *

Ok I changed ownership and it seems to work now, update and graph are OK at the moment!

I still have this error (total):

Jindra

wait until tomorrow, it can be automatically filled
