What do you mean with 'is not working'? So you get empty pages? Please, report the issue using our GitHub issue tracker. > - I get "02/Sep/2017 07:34:50 [Lua.cpp:5629] > [@/usr/share/ntopng/scripts/callbacks/5min.lua]:[161] ERROR: Cannot complete > local hosts RRD dump in 5 minutes.

This means that you have too many local hosts that there's not enough time to update their statistics in 5 minutes. How many local hosts do you have? Disabling data retention of L7 timeseries may alleviate the issue. The bottleneck here are the several multiple RRD updates made for every local host. > - The same goes when I export to ES. The ES is at about 30% CPU utilization > but ntopng reports massive flow drops. ElasticSearch is not fast enough to inject flows at the required speed. Hence ntopng flows export queue grows and at some point it overflows resulting in flows drops. Other people experienced this in the past. You must configure your ES deployment to make sure it has enough intake. > > Regards, > Spiros > > > On 1/9/2017 9:26 πμ, Luca Deri wrote: >> Spiros >> can you please update ntopng and report? >> >> Thanks Luca >> >>> On 31 Aug 2017, at 20:10, Spiros Papageorgiou <pap...@noc.ntua.gr >>> <mailto:pap...@noc.ntua.gr>> wrote: >>> >>> Hi Alfredo, >>> >>> Here is the output: >>> [root@server ~]# cat /proc/mounts | grep huge >>> cgroup /sys/fs/cgroup/hugetlb cgroup >>> rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,hugetlb 0 0 >>> hugetlbfs /dev/hugepages hugetlbfs rw,relatime 0 0 >>> >>> [root@server ~]# cat /sys/devices/system/node/node*/meminfo | grep Huge >>> Node 0 AnonHugePages: 2488320 kB >>> Node 0 HugePages_Total: 2048 >>> Node 0 HugePages_Free: 2048 >>> Node 0 HugePages_Surp: 0 >>> [root@server ~]# >>> >>> Regards, >>> Sp >>> >>> On 31/8/2017 8:06 μμ, Alfredo Cardigliano wrote: >>>> Hi Spiros >>>> please provide the output of: >>>> >>>> cat /proc/mounts / grep huge >>>> cat /sys/devices/system/node/node*/meminfo | grep Huge >>>> >>>> Alfredo >>>> >>>>> On 31 Aug 2017, at 18:53, Spiros Papageorgiou <pap...@noc.ntua.gr> >>>>> <mailto:pap...@noc.ntua.gr> wrote: >>>>> >>>>> Hi all, >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> I have an updated ntopng/pfring-zc installation and when I start ntopng >>>>> the following messages are produced: >>>>> >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:06 server logger: ntopng start >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:08 server ntopng: [ViewInterface.cpp:50] ERROR: Internal >>>>> Error: NULL interface >>>>> [view:zc:ens160@0,zc:ens160@1,zc:ens160@2,zc:ens160@3][2] >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:08 server ntopng: [ViewInterface.cpp:50] ERROR: Internal >>>>> Error: NULL interface >>>>> [view:zc:ens160@0,zc:ens160@1,zc:ens160@2,zc:ens160@3][2] >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:08 server ntopng: [ViewInterface.cpp:50] ERROR: Internal >>>>> Error: NULL interface >>>>> [view:zc:ens160@0,zc:ens160@1,zc:ens160@2,zc:ens160@3][2] >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:08 server ntopng: [ViewInterface.cpp:50] ERROR: Internal >>>>> Error: NULL interface >>>>> [view:zc:ens160@0,zc:ens160@1,zc:ens160@2,zc:ens160@3][2] >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:08 server kernel: device ens160 entered promiscuous mode >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:09 server ntopng: [PF_RINGInterface.cpp:72] WARNING: Unable >>>>> to set packet capture direction >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:11 server ntopng: [PF_RINGInterface.cpp:72] WARNING: Unable >>>>> to set packet capture direction >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:11 server ntopng: Starting ntopng: Unable to start >>>>> ntopng[FAILED] >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:11 server systemd: Started Start/stop ntopng program. >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:12 server ntopng: [PF_RINGInterface.cpp:72] WARNING: Unable >>>>> to set packet capture direction >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:14 server ntopng: [PF_RINGInterface.cpp:72] WARNING: Unable >>>>> to set packet capture direction >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:14 server kernel: traps: ntopng[2575] general protection >>>>> ip:42df01 sp:7ff418f69b60 error:0 in ntopng[400000+264000] >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:15 server kernel: device ens160 left promiscuous mode >>>>> Aug 30 18:05:15 server systemd: ntopng.service: main process exited, >>>>> code=killed, status=11/SEGV >>>>> >>>>> Why the view of all queues does not work?
