The first point is (since you didn't specifically mention it) that
you need to hard-code the servers that you want to test into the
script, modifying the part like:

  %host_h = (
  #    'your-domain.dom' => {
  #        port => "80",
  #        url  => "/server-status?auto",
  #    },
  #    'your-otherdomain.dom' => {
  #        port => "80",
  #        url  => "/server-status?auto",
  #    },
  );

to reflect the web-servers that you want to test.

Assuming you've done that part and can access the corresponding
"server-status" page (http://my.web.com/server-status?auto),
the next place to look for clues would be the LARRDOUT file.
This may indicate an error, or it might confirm that the RRD file
has actually been created.

The server I've been playing with has Bbgen on it, but I expect
that the standard server will be similar. Links to produce graphs
of the "apache" data are not included in the default set. Depending
on where you would like them to be displayed, you will probably need
to do a bit of tinkering to integrate them. To confirm that the data
looks good, you should be able to view the graphs with a URL like:

http://bb.server.com/cgi-bin/larrd-grapher.cgi?host=my.web.com&service=apache


Cheers, Phil.
