Description

Hello.

Having made the plugin new.. I have difficulties to it draw my graphs under some circumstancies:

WORKING It works agains shoutcast v2 64bit. Is php written. uses curl to connect to the server. an runs on a Debian lenny 64bit i think is munin 1.2.1 (I use always the official package) machine like a charm.

NOT WORKING Exact same plugin, execpt it uses some different XML tags since there seems to be some differences in the XML tags between versions... The munin-node machine in this case is Debian squeeze 64 bit and version now is 1.4.5 (again the stable provided package, no compilation from source). It runs munin-run... no aparent problem, it shows fetched data. with and withou config It runs munin-run --debug althoug I had to remove some lines of the code to do so, it complained about env variables (would have to polish this). with and without config telneted from munin machine to munin-node 4949 and run it, both fetch and config, and fetch showed the data correctly. Permission on the plugin file is set to 755, tried with 777 with same result (777 obviously on links) No alarms/warns on munin-node.log Running munin-update as munin user from the munin host (following the guides) against the munin-node host for the service seems to do not work, it simply do not "find" the plugin on the node, although finds normally the other plugins.

The system overall is working: two munin mirrored servers, monitoring a cluster of machines running munin-node. So installation and setup is fine or at least it works. nodes run a few other plugins (not too many, to keep overhead/bandwith as low as necessary, among of them shoutcastv1 plugins)...finally I have graphs for everything, including totals, execpt for shoutcastv2 servers runnin in 32 bit machines.

If we could polish this plugin, and make sure it works, would be great to publish it and let munin ride the new generation of shoutcast v2 servers with GPL tools.

Ready to feed any data as requested (the plugin code, munin conf files, cli prompt captures, anything...)

Thanks, regards
