[Xymon] xymon graphs are not visible

[Ashwin Agarwal]

Hi all,

I want to share few things with you. I was going through the xymon
documentation today  and in that there is one step "yum install pcre-devel
openssl-devel openldap-devel rrdtool-devel"

so i was checking on our xymon server whether these packages are installed
or not. Found that rrdtool-devel package is missing and that is the one
reason we may not be seeing the graphs. We will go ahead and reinstall
xymon from scratch.


[asagarw at uspvldmzlx29 etc]$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.2 (Santiago)
[asagarw at uspvldmzlx29 etc]$ rpm -qa  | grep pcre-devel
pcre-devel-7.8-4.el6.x86_64
[asagarw at uspvldmzlx29 etc]$ rpm -qa  | grep openssl-devel
openssl-devel-1.0.0-25.el6_3.1.x86_64
[asagarw at uspvldmzlx29 etc]$ rpm -qa  | grep openldap-deve
openldap-devel-2.4.23-26.el6_3.2.x86_64
[asagarw at uspvldmzlx29 etc]$ rpm -qa  | grep rrdtool-devel

Thank you,
Ashwin.
