RE: {bb} LARRD - RRDTOOL Problem

["Darren Murphy" <darren@maginet.net>]

RRDTool 1.2 requires colons to be escaped within graph comments

Edit larrd-grapher.cgi and look for the following lines (around line 1500 or
thereabouts):

    RRDs::graph($RRD_graph,"-s",$graph_c{$service}{$graph}{'start_sec'},
        "--title",$graph_c{$service}{$graph}{'title'},"-w576",
        "-v",$graph_c{$service}{'yaxis'},"-a","PNG","--lazy",
        &defs($host,$service,$graph,$disk_part),
        qq{COMMENT:$date\r});

Note the last line above, ie "qq{COMMENT:$date\r});"
It's quite likely that your date variable will contain colons - therefore
they must be escaped.

A quick and dirty way to take care of this is to insert the following line
just BEFORE the above code.

 $date =~ s/:/\\:/g;

This _may_ solve your problem.

Darren
