Adding new targets to smokeping not showing via web UI (apache)

[abkrahn]

Hello everyone,
I'm a new user for Smokeping, implemented it successfully on arch linux .

systemctl status smokeping.service
● smokeping.service - SmokePing Daemon

Aug 10 09:39:37 figaro smokeping[2775209]: FPing: probing 3 targets with step 60 s and offset 19 s.

I added a new target via the config file /etc/smokeping/config as an example.

++ GoogleDNS

menu = Google DNS
title = Google DNS server
host = 8.8.8.8

++ MultiHost

menu = Multihost example
title = CloudflareDNS and Google DNS
host = /targets/CloudflareDNS /targets/GoogleDNS

++ Yahoo
host = finance.yahoo.com 

Yahoo site was added for a test. Looks like its generating data

-rw-r--r-- 1 smokeping smokeping 2986808 Aug 10 13:03 CloudflareDNS.rrd
-rw-r--r-- 1 smokeping smokeping 2986808 Aug 10 13:03 GoogleDNS.rrd
-rw-r--r-- 1 smokeping smokeping 2986808 Aug 10 13:03 Yahoo.rrd
[root@figaro targets]# pwd
/srv/smokeping/data/targets

However, There are no graphs for yahoo on the frontend UI which is apache. Accessed via
http://localhost/smokeping/smokeping.fcgi
Any thoughts?

Thank you,
Anderson

Did you terminate the fcgi process and let a new one start?
