Hi all,

I have a instance of Dude 4.0 beta 3 running and it has started crashing.
Once I restarted it I noticed that all the graphs are blank. Traffic,cpu,ping response. All of them.
I currently have about 175 link graphs and about 225 device graphs.
I can't figure out what my next step of troubleshooting is.
There is nothing in the logs.
Is there a switch I can throw to actually get it to tell me WHY it is crashing ( about once every 48 hours now)
Maybe that will let me know where the graphs went as well.

Thanks in advance,

Chris Stradtman

It is most likely you have filled the database, it crashes if it gets to 2gb. You should do a restore from a previous version, vacuum the database and set your raw keep time to 2days. You might be able to turn your raw keep time down to 10 min and wait 30 min then set it back up to 2 days but this is all just a guess as to what the actual problem. Start by looking into the dude/data folder and verifying the database size.

That was it. I followed your directions and everything started working again. I had manually deleted all of the raw data in the database.
It was the vacuum that was need to get the Dude happy again.

Thanks,
