225671 2008-06-09 21:05 0000 munin has no plugins available, neither incl. in the ~amd64 munin-ebuild, nor separately. Therefore doesn't work 2008-07-08 07:15:50 0000 1 1 1 Unclassified Gentoo Linux Applications unspecified AMD64 Linux RESOLVED FIXED P2 major --- 1 gordonp@sfu.ca robbat2@gentoo.org gordonp@sfu.ca 2008-06-09 21:05:13 0000 Edit /etc/portage/package.keywords, to accept unstable net-analyzer/munin-1.3.4. Emerge 'munin', run "emerge --config net-analyzer/munin" per ebuild-message. Watch the cron-error-emails arrive, every 5min, whether or not munin-node is running. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge unstable (~amd64) net-analyzer/munin. Installs net-analyzer/munin-1.3.4 at time of reporting. 2. emerge --config net-analyzer/munin 3. cron-error-emails arrive, every 5min thereafter Actual Results: Cron-error-message, received via email: HTML::Template::param() : attempt to set parameter 'groups' with a scalar - parameter is not a TMPL_VAR! at /usr/libexec/munin/munin-html line 162 Also: # su -s /bin/bash munin $ munin-cron produces: HTML::Template::param() : attempt to set parameter 'groups' with a scalar - parameter is not a TMPL_VAR! at /usr/libexec/munin/munin-html line 162 Expected Results: Should have nice munin-graphs edit /var/lib/munin/crontab and comment out the cron-line which runs munin-cron every 5min. This stops the mail-messages, at least. robbat2@gentoo.org 2008-06-09 21:57:24 0000 Fixed in CVS. I patched it to have a more useful error message. The actual source of the error is that your munin-update has not generated any RRD files yet, so munin-graph has not generated any graphs, and thus munin-html has no input data to generate pages for. The full set of instructions does tell you to symlink plugins into /etc/munin/plugins/ before you start munin-node. gordonp@sfu.ca 2008-06-10 00:00:05 0000 Thanks for the speedy response! light@theendofthetunnel.de 2008-07-08 07:15:50 0000 When will this fix hit the tree?
