Did it yesterday, this is the only thing missing.

It suddenly stopped working, I get this error: Error: {"vnstatversion":"1.14","jsonversion":"1","interfaces":[Error: Database load failed even when using backup (No such file or directory). Aborting.
What to do? I haven't changed anything.

@chrcoluk:
There's no export function for this package yet, you have to manually backup the databases.
vnStat has an export function that could be used to dump the databases to config.xml similar to RRD. But it would need some logic to convert the hardware interface names to the pfSense naming scheme and back. The databases contain something like i.E. igb1 instead of OPT2.

@BabaBooey:
What's the content of/var/db/vnstat on your system?

@jdillard:
Any chance for a backup function? It would also be nice to use the vnStat daemon instead of a cron job. We lose up to 5 minutes interface data when rebooting, don't we?

Seems your vnStat databases became corrupted then, could be because of a system crash and reboot. Or you HDD could be dying.

I had a couple of unexpected power failures earlier this winter, due to a space heater, could that be it?
My pfsense box(Netgate SG-4860) seems to be working just fine, so the hardware should be fine, I hope so anyway :)
Is there a way to empty the db and start anew? If so, how do I do that?

I think the switch Reset Graphing Data should work. If not you can always delete all the files in the vnstat directory to start over.

Power failures are a good reason for databases to get corrupted, yes.

Thank you I really appreciate your help :D

Is there a way to have the traffic graph data enabled between power reboots?

In the Total Traffic Stats package, on a reboot, the graphing isn't enabled. I have to re-enable it.
Even after 'save as defaults' is selected.

Maybe try the "Save as defaults" button

Hi,
I got also the bug where the cron job disappear. Also only the option "Disable Graphing" appear but no more the "enable" option. Tries to remove and reinstall with the same result. The issue come after the bug where the databases of the vnstat tool were corrupted.
But what a great tool! :)
Thanks!

GentleJoe

After every single reboot, this is displayed.
No matter what I have tried. I have removed and re-installed the package.

How restore "Interactive Graph" from *.csv file to Status_Traffic_Totals?

I'm on pfSense 2.3.2-release-p1 and just upgraded from traffic totals 1.1_1 to 1.2_1. Now when I look at traffic totals, the "interactive graph" portion is smaller (much less height), has no ticks on the y axis and is as a whole pretty much useless. The table with the actual values shows my data is fine, ranging from 140GB to 900GB. I'd expect to see a scale that reflects that. See attachment. Is there a fix for this? If not, can I downgrade back to a working version?

Under pfsense v2.3.3 the Traffice Totals graph has been working okay for me (including good height, ticks on the y-axis).
