Problems with install -disU (opennmc 1.2.5 on Redhat8.0)

Hi all,

I try to install openNMS 1.2.5 on RedHat 8.0 (kernel 2.4.18-14). 
If I try to configure the database with the command "install -disU" 
the following error message occurs:

[root <at> vm1 bin]# ./install -disU

Hi Achim,

What you need to do is one of two things:
1) Upgrade to PostgreSQL 7.4 or later; or
2) See section 6.1.6 in the install guide to set your database  
server's error messages to be in English, at least for a period of  
time while you run the installer.

http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php? 
docid=23937&group_id=4141#N10731

The problem is three-fold (but easy to fix with the above options):

1) You are running PostgreSQL 7.2, which does not provide JDBC error  
codes (e.g.: 42P01 is 'ERROR: relation "%s" does not exist), so the  
installer has to parse the error strings that are intended for humans.
2) Your PostgreSQL server is set to use German localization, so the  
server returns error strings in German for errors that have been  
translated.
3) The installer does have a test for a version of PostgreSQL that

RRD miscalculating...

I'm having a problem with RRD showing incorrect usage for interfaces
when their throughput becomes greater than 100Mb/s. The attached graph
shows a POS OC3 interface. The usage in the graph for 1100 to 1800 shows
a total usage of about 60Mb/s, when in fact during that period of time
the interface in question was nearly maxed. I'm tracking the same
inteface in MRTG, and it correctly displays the usage.

I'm running RHEL4 w/ tomcat4-4.1.18, opennms-1.2.5, j2sdk-1.4.2,
postgresql-7.4.8-1, and rrd-1.2.12. Any assistance would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks!

- Darrell

Darrell,
	Can you open a bug in this at bugs.opennms.org.  And post the graph  
you attached to the mail as well as the MRTG graph you have.

Thanks!
Matt

Darrell,
	If you have logs for that  period.  You should be able to find the  
values that the getting written to the RRD file.  It would be good to  
have the data.  Another is to ensure that you are collecting the HC  
counters for this interface.  The standard counters cannot handle the  
capacity of an OC3 connection.

Hmmm that I'm not 100% sure about. How would I verify which counter I'm
using?

Any errors in the web.log or output.log?

Is rrdtool installed in a location opennms knows about?

Ted

It looks like you are collecting on the 32 bit counters which *will*  
roll-over during a 5 minute collection cycle on an interface seeing  
that much traffic. You'll need to collect in/out octets on the 64 bit  
counters for that interface.

You're definitely right there. I can't seem to figure out how to start
using the HC couters though. Can anyone point me in the right direction
on this?
