When running ~cricket/cricket/collect-subtrees test as user cricket..
I see no output at all. 

>From /etc/httpd/logs/error_log:

[Sun Apr 18 17:05:32 2010] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Use of uninitialized value
$template in pack at /home/cricket/cricket/lib/RRD/Format.pm line 188., referer:
http://localhost/~cricket/cricket/grapher.cgi?target=%2Ftest

Meanwhile, on my cgi page, I see no data in the graph or in the summaries.


My 
http://localhost/~cricket/cricket/grapher.cgi?target=%2Ftest%2Ftest;view=name 
output shows:

Summary
Values at last update:
Last updated at Sun Apr 18 17:05:22 2010 

(and then two graphs with all graph formatting as specified but no data)

comment: yes there's extra settings in there but I'm basically cutting and
pasting and learning as I go, hence the unused snmp settings and the clueless
customization



The Default and Targets files contain is:

target test
    target-type = "valueFromFile"
    #collect     = false


target --default--
    server        = ""
    snmp-host     = %server%
    display-name  = "%auto-target-name% on %server%"
    min-size      = 0
    max-size      = undef


##### Datasources #########

dataSource straight_value
    ds-source = file:0:/tmp/test-ds.txt
    rrd-ds-type      = GAUGE

#### Target Types #########

targetType valueFromFile
    ds    = "straight_value"
    view  = "name: straight_value"

#### Graphs ###############

graph --default--
    legend   = "just another test graph"
    y-max    = 100
    #units    = tu
    width-hint    = undef
    height-hint    = undef
    #scale    = undef
    rrd-graph-args  = undef
    #si-units= false
    color     = dark-green
    draw-as   =  LINE2
    y-axis    = "test y-axis label"
    units     = "Users"

graph   test-ds
    draw-as    =  LINE2

The /tmp/test-ds.txt file is just a file containing the number '55'. 

Can anyone help?
