hi, i am installing mrtg on my centos 5.1 64-bit box(DA installed)
all things going well until i enter
Code: 
env LANG=C /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg
and i got
Code: 
/usr/bin/rateup: /usr/local/lib/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib64/libgd.so.2)

what's wrong and what should i do ? :(
thanks
 
Have you actually checked the graphs? I was having problems with using source but got it installed through yum. When running it i get the same error but the graphs are compiled and viewable fine.
 
I just added to the cron to send errors to /dev/null doesnt seem to be having any issues performance wise.

You have some libraries missing.

Can you show me the following output.
rpm -q libpng

Since I was having the same problem I will reply with mine.

libpng-1.2.10-7.1.el5_0.1


mrtg was installed using yum, found that there were no dependencies.

locate libpng outputs

/usr/lib/libpng12.so.0
/usr/lib/libpng12.so.0.10.0
/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/libpng-1.2.26/libpng12.so.0
/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/libpng-1.2.26/libpng12.so.0.1.2.26
/usr/local/lib/libpng12.so.0
/usr/local/lib/libpng12.so.0.1.2.26


Hope this helps.
 
mrtg goof

i tried one of the howto ,,, didnot work, so i did the yum install mrtg it seemed to install but still get no graphs, i had used a how to here before on an eariler ver of centos 4.2 and it worked good, but this new server is 5.1 32bit and is working fine but i screwed up with the mrtg install,, if some could do a howto for centos 5.x php 5/x mysql 5x. or just point me in the right direction maybe,,, thanks

Any news on this?
I'm also getting these errors on Centos 5 64 bit:
Code: 
/usr/bin/rateup: /usr/local/lib/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib64/libgd.so.2)

What program did you use to install mrtg.
 
Seems to be a problem with libpng but I havent really found a fix for it yet. Does it cause mrtg to not update correctly?

If it causes no problems you could just ignore it lol...
 
Old topic, but I still got the same errors with CentOS 5.4 64bit.

I followed the solution suggested to run the errors to null.

Just in case someone is looking for 'how to do this'

vi /etc/crontab

and edit the mrtg line by appending the >/dev/null 2>&1 at the end of line:

*/5 * * * * root /usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/mrtg /var/www/html/mrtg/core/mrtg.cfg >/dev/null 2>&1

HTH someone for a quick fix (well,. at least getting rid of the error emails).

-Alon.
 
I'm having the same issue on Debian. This seems DA-related as on other servers I dont notice this issue. Does DA do something special to the GD library?
 
Anything new on this? I am seeing it on a fresh Directadmin install on CentOS 5 64bit. Quite annoying.
