| Topic 1 is just a syntax error, which is found now in version 1.5.x Topic 2 uses the constant INF in a inconsistent way. The docs of v1.5.x state 'negative infinity' as NEGINF. Created attachment 349 [details]
Fixes for 'graphs.pl'.YES! Thanks Bernhard. Next time I know where to look at. I changed lines for load-graph as described above and "-INF" to "NEGINF" => graphs are working again. Proposed patch for Core 89 is attached. Thanks again! Regards Matthias I believe this has been shipped. | 
Hi, Affected system: "IPFire 2.17 (i586) - core89" After building and installing a new version of 'rrdtool 1.5.3', I suddenly couldn't get two specific rrd-graphs to work, no matter what I did. 'rrdtool 1.4.9' worked perfect, but with 1.5.3 these specific graphs couldn't be shown anymore. Firefox complained: "The image ... cannot be displayed because it contains errors". Using IE 11, I got the following error messages: Load Graph: "Error in RRD::graph for load: Unused Arguments "" in command : AREA:load1#FF0000:1Minute:" sda Graph: "Error in RRD::graph for sda: don't undestand '-INF,*'" [sic!] Solution/Workaround: After some research I found that the *first* error with the 'load'-graph was triggered by these lines in '/var/ipfire/graphs.pl' (line ~260ff): ... "AREA:load1".$color{"color13"}."A0:1 ".$Lang::tr{'minute'}.":", ... "AREA:load5".$color{"color18"}."A0:5 ".$Lang::tr{'minutes'}.":", ... "AREA:load15".$color{"color14"}."A0:15 ".$Lang::tr{'minutes'}.":", ... After removing .":" at the end of each of these lines, the "load"-graphs were displayed again, everything seemed to be ok. I tested with 'rrdtool 1.4.9', it still worked. Workaround for sda Graph - this was triggered by 'graphs.pl', too: After commenting two lines in 'graphs.pl' (line 522 and 529), sda-graph was displayed again, missing the 'standby'-display: ... # "CDEF:st1=standby,-INF,*", ... # "AREA:st1".$color{"color20"}."A0:standby\\j", ...
