Ok, I found the source of the problem: port number has to be set with dbi_conn_set_option_numeric rather than dbi_conn_set_option which handles strings. Probably not the best piece of C code you've ever seen, but the following works for me:
in rrdtool-1.4.20131003/src/rrd_fetch_libdbi.c line 193 was: if (dbi_conn_set_option(th->conn,key,value)) { dbi_conn_error(th->conn,(const char**)&dbi_errstr); rrd_set_error( "libdbi: problems setting %s to %s - %s",key,value,dbi_errstr); _sql_close(th); return -1; } and I changed it to: if (strcmp(key, "port") == 0) { if (dbi_conn_set_option_numeric(th->conn,key,atoi(value))) { dbi_conn_error(th->conn,(const char**)&dbi_errstr); rrd_set_error( "libdbi: problems setting %s to %s - %s",key,value,dbi_errstr); _sql_close(th); return -1; } } else { if (dbi_conn_set_option(th->conn,key,value)) { dbi_conn_error(th->conn,(const char**)&dbi_errstr); rrd_set_error( "libdbi: problems setting %s to %s - %s",key,value,dbi_errstr); _sql_close(th); return -1; } } Regards, MK -- View this message in context: http://rrd-mailinglists.937164.n2.nabble.com/rrdgraph-libdbi-issue-with-port-number-tp7581395p7581396.html Sent from the RRDtool Users Mailinglist mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ rrd-users mailing list rrd-users@lists.oetiker.ch https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/rrd-users
