NTOP + 1.2.1-RC2 built on Wed Dec 10 18:59:47 breaks RRD
-
It appears that 1.2.1-RC2 built on Wed Dec 10 18:59:47 EST 2008 breaks the RRD, as neither the in-house RRD nor ntop RRD work and ntop spews RRD related stuff into the syslog:
Dec 10 23:02:07 ntop[1852]: **WARNING** RRD: rrd_update(/var/db/ntop/rrd/interfaces/xl2/hosts/117/93/39/148/pktSent.rrd) error: could not lock RRD Dec 10 23:02:07 ntop[1852]: **WARNING** RRD: rrd_update(/var/db/ntop/rrd/interfaces/xl2/hosts/117/93/39/148/pktSent.rrd) error: could not lock RRD Dec 10 23:02:07 ntop[1852]: **WARNING** RRD: rrd_update(/var/db/ntop/rrd/interfaces/xl2/hosts/79/114/215/15/totPeersSent.rrd) error: could not lock RRD Dec 10 23:02:07 ntop[1852]: **WARNING** RRD: rrd_update(/var/db/ntop/rrd/interfaces/xl2/hosts/79/114/215/15/totPeersSent.rrd) error: could not lock RRD

The problem is ntop - an update with ntop installed knocks out RRD and requires an update without ntop to get it going again. Re-installing ntop causes the same symptoms, with syslog entries as posted above.
