G'day Sharif, I'm not altogether sure of the problem here ... let me guess ...

the -c here is wrong?

To debug this we'll need ...

1. output from $ grep PS /etc/pcp.conf

2. your pmlogger control file

3. can you rerun this with pmlogger_daily being run from cron with -V -V (very verbose)?

4. output from
	$ . /etc/pcp.conf
	$ $PCP_PS_PROG $PCP_PS_ALL_FLAGS | grep '[p]mlogger'
