Vnstat2 Package Updated - Report/Feedback problems here.

Cino

I was able to install it just a few minutes ago and so far so good… I'll do another install later tomorrow to make sure... My old data is still there and displaying.. Thank you very much for taking the time to fix this... I knew my bandaids wouldn't last for long ;-)

So package installed fine, now I had used the old patch method, etc.. etc. Think the data was in a different dir? When I installed the package now it seems to have worked. I will just have to clear out some data from 2012 ;)

July 2012 88.33 MB 15.32 MB 103.65 MB

Prob last time the old package worked without manual intervention. Will clear out my data and see how it goes.

But looks working sofar to me - THANK YOU!!! This has been long overdue, and you are a HERO!!

edit: Ok cleaned the dbs and now looks good, looking forward to seeing data fill in. Again Thank you!!!

I just upgraded mine on pfsense 2.1-RELEASE x86_64. All well so far.
Will report back.

Data is logging but when accessing the VNstat2 front-end via the gui I get a 404 error. The link is http://firewall/vnstat2..

On the main vnstat2 page in the pfsense GUI have you check marked "Enable vnstat php frontend (Note that no login will be needed)" then pressed save?

Thank you! Last night, the package would not install. Today, it installed perfectly.
Keep up the great work!

That was weird, I had it toggled but turned it off and on and fixed it.

I installed it, however, when I try to hit the PHP frontpage for it, I get the following message:

Notice: Undefined index: totalrx in /usr/local/www/vnstat2/index.php on line 81 Notice: Undefined index: totalrxk in /usr/local/www/vnstat2/index.php on line 81 Notice: Undefined index: totaltx in /usr/local/www/vnstat2/index.php on line 82 Notice: Undefined index: totaltxk in /usr/local/www/vnstat2/index.php on line 82

Tried reinstalling, and also uninstalling/reinstalling. Running 2.1

Update: I waited a few minutes, clicked around on the page with the error, the error went away, and now it just works. Can't reproduce the error again. Life is good.

Ok great! Maybe it was just a cached page? You had it installed before and it was broken?

Should be same folder still for the db. Did you have another db that was more current in a custom place? Glad it is working for you!

Good news! Thanks for the feedback.

Could have been still waiting for data or something was cached. It is continuously updated via a cronjob that runs every minute. Glad it is now working.

Glad to hear! Thanks for the feedback

"Should be same folder still for the db. Did you have another db that was more current in a custom place? Glad it is working for you!"

Yeah I had hobbled together it working before, had to edit the config by hand every time updated pfsense, run a patch, etc. The data was in a different folder, so looks like you had used the older data folder from when the packaged worked - and had some data in there from way back 2012 ;)

The data was not really of any importance - just cleaned up the databases and looks to be logging fine now. So looks all good to me - thanks again this has been a long time coming for sure.

Ok! You could probably just transplant the DB but back up other one first. Either way! Yeah its been broken for a long time.

Hi,

Sorry if this is a known issue, I noticed that the HOURS page is not distinguishing between AM and PM, everything is PM.

For example,

2P - 3P 327.22 MB 7.65 MB 334.87 MB
1P - 2P 33.21 MB 10.56 MB 43.77 MB
12P - 1P 20.08 MB 8.45 MB 28.53 MB
11P - 12P 29.58 MB 11.32 MB 40.90 MB
10P - 11P 19.75 MB 5.78 MB 25.53 MB

pFsense release version: 2.1
pFsense architecture: amd64
pFsense filesystem: full
pFsense status: fresh install
Did you have vnstat installed before? No

Thanks for including the information. Looks a bug. I will have a look into it.

bryan.paradis

Had a look and I think this is the offending line. You can fix this by editing /usr/local/www/vnstat2/lang/en.php

%P doesn't seem to be supported on Freebsd. replace with %p instead or %H:%M for 24h. Examples below

%P not supported by strftime on Freebsd


$L['datefmt_hours'] = '%l%P';

Corrected line with the space


$L['datefmt_hours'] = '%l%p';

Or if your want 24h format instead


$L['datefmt_hours'] = '%H:%M';

Forked, edited and created a pull request to fix this for all languages as well as update French time to 21h00 format. You can see the pull request here for the vnstat_php_frontend git. I will roll in an update with the rest of the languages and some other misc fixes at a later time

Swyman18

Easy enough fix, thank you!

@Swyman18:

No problem. Ill try to throw in a language select as well as at least fix this issue. Not going to happen until later this weekend though!

Thank you for updating the package. Works great :)

Just a heads up: you can grab version 1.5.2 from his github page, https://github.com/bjd/vnstat-php-frontend

I've been running it for a good while now without issues.

Thanks for the feedback! I am aware of the git I have an open pull request to fix hour format currently :)

Can you make a checkbox to make the stats persistent across reboots on nanobsd, please? ;)

Your saying that the database is not persistant on nanobsd? Was it persistant before? Can you please give more information including what is asked in my first post
