[NFDB-users] Apache problem trying to load NFD in OBSD 4.5

[Fernando Alvarez]

Hi all,

I've tried to see what's happening with nfdb and I have no idea about
what's going on...

I execute /var/www/netflowdashboard/sbin/netflowdb.pl -D and I can see
lots of packets arriving at the interface:
        ...
        128.121.146.107:80 => 172.22.1.200:52162, 6 packets row UPDATED
        ...
        
If I try flowd -d , I can see after some seconds, how packets are
arriving:

        read_config: entering
        child_get_config: entering
        drop_privs: dropping privs without chroot
        recv_config: entering fd = 3send_config: entering fd = 4
        
        recv_config: ready to receive configsend_config: done
        
        child_get_config: child config done
        Listener for [10.0.0.2]:12345 fd = 3
        Adjusted socket receive buffer from 41600 to 262144
        Setting socket send buf to 1024
        privsep_init: entering
        drop_privs: dropping privs with chroot
        init_pfd: entering (num_fds = 0)
        init_pfd: done (num_fds = 2)
        client_open_log: entering
        answer_open_log: entering

        ... and lots more like this one...
        

And that's all... I don't know what to do because AFAIK everything seems
to be ok, but the web interfaces shows nothing: no devices, no info, no
graphics... only the main interface. That's frustrating! :-\

Anyway, thanks a lot for your help. Any idea is welcome
