Ok thanks to all for your response, I tried to install Nagiosgrapher-1.4 and
it works perfectly !

Johan,

I tried to remove lines in my ngraph.ncfg like you said but so far it does
not seem to repair the problem.
And, like you said, the daemon don't try to parse my definitions!!

An other idea ??

;-)
Davy

It looks like Ngrapher is not even trying to parse the infos.
I know that there is a bug with the Ngrapher version I use that makes it 
ignoring the "graph definitions".  If there is not exactly ONE (no more, no 
less) blank line between two graph definitions, then one of the definitions 
will just be ignored.  I do not know if this bug has been corrected in newer

versions, if not, it might be the cause of your problems.

Here is what I would do :

1) Remove every graph definitions in "ngraph.ncfg".
2) Add only one graph definition in the file. So, it would be something like
:

define config {
        pipe                    /var/nagios/ngraph.pipe

        step                    60
        heartbeat               300

        rrdpath                 /var/nagios/rrd/
        tmppath                 /tmp/nagiosgrapher/

        ...
        }
<leave an empty line here>
 define ngraph{
         service_name            PING
         graph_log_regex         perdus = ([0-9]+)
         graph_value             Loss
         graph_units             %
         graph_legend            Packet Lost
         rrd_plottype            LINE2
         rrd_color               ff0000
         page                    Packet Lost
         }
<leave an empty line here>
<end of file>

3) Check if it is working (at least, if it is trying to parse the datas)
