So I am trying to setup Collectd to gather resource usage data and view it in graph format. I'm using Centos 6.8 with Apache 2.4 (if that matters). However, I am unable to display any data.
I feel all my configuration files are correct.
Here is all the relevant parts of the collectd.conf file:
Hostname "localhost"
FQDNLookup false
BaseDir "/var/lib/collectd"
PIDFile "/var/run/collectd.pid"
PluginDir "/usr/lib64/collectd"
TypesDB "/usr/share/collectd/types.db"
Interval 10
Timeout 2
ReadThreads 5
LoadPlugin syslog
<Plugin syslog>
LogLevel info
</Plugin>
LoadPlugin cpu
LoadPlugin interface
LoadPlugin load
LoadPlugin memory
LoadPlugin rrdtool
Include "/etc/collectd.d"
<Plugin rrdtool>
DataDir "/var/lib/collectd/rrd/"
CacheTimeout 120
CacheFlush 900
</Plugin>
I can confirm that rrd files are being made:
[root@atom collectd]# ls /var/lib/collectd/rrd/
atom.hackavistic.com localhost
So I am trying to use a display tool, i've tried two:
https://github.com/httpdss/collectd-web
https://github.com/collectd/collectd/tree/master/contrib/php-collection
I've setup both correctly pointing them to the /var/lib/collectd/rrd directory but they both fail to show any data. Its important to note they don't allow me to select a host etc so I feel like this is a permission issue but the /var/lib/collectd/rrd directory is world readable.
I also have this in collectd.conf as an addition apache include:
Alias /php-collection/ /var/www/php-collection/
<Directory /var/www/php-collection/>
DirectoryIndex index.php
Options -Indexes
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
</Directory>
Alias /collectd-web/ /var/www/collectd-web/
<Directory /var/www/collectd-web/>
Options +Indexes
AllowOverride all
</Directory>
Note: I have also used the standalone web server by running runserver.py with python but it produces the same results.
