I doubt I've remembered everything, but hopefully these notes might help...

I downloaded the tarball drraw-2.2b2.tar.gz from
http://web.taranis.org/drraw/#download

I extracted it under /var/www, then renamed the directory from
drraw-2.2bd to drraw.

I editted the file /var/www/drraw/drraw.conf to set the datadirs like so:

  %datadirs = ('/usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata-nagios2'  => '[Nagios2] ',
               '/usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata'  => '[Nagios3] ',
              );

You probably only need the one datadir - I have some old .rrds in
perfdata-nagios2 I like to be able to look at too.

I set variables for the working directories for drraw like so:

  $saved_dir = '/usr/local/drraw/saved';
  $tmp_dir = '/usr/local/drraw/tmp';

These already existed on my system from a previous install - you may
need to create them.  Put them wherever you think is suitable and make
sure they are writeable by apache (on my system permissions on these
are "drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data www-data").



I create the file /etc/apache2/conf.d/drraw.conf like so:


# ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin "/usr/local/nagios/sbin"

  Alias /drraw "/var/www/drraw"
  <Directory "/var/www/drraw">
      DirectoryIndex  drraw.cgi
  #  SSLRequireSSL
     Options +ExecCGI
     AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
     AllowOverride None
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
  #  Order deny,allow
  #  Deny from all
  #  Allow from 127.0.0.1
     AuthName "Nagios Access"
     AuthType Basic
     AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users
     Require valid-user
  </Directory>



and restarted the apache daemon to make it take effect.

I hope this helps.

If you're still having trouble, please be a bit more specific about
what you are having a problem with.

Cheers,

Jim
