[rrd-users] I don't understand 'kipscale' in command

[Florian Wolters]

Dear rrdtool users,

I have been struggeling around with rrdtool 1.4.8 for a while now. I
want to skip an area from scaling by using ":skipscale". The exact
definition is:

AREA:sc_outside_sun::skipscale

But rrdtool dies with a message:

ERROR: I don't understand 'kipscale' in command:
'AREA:sc_outside_sun::skipscale'.

Can anyone point me to the cause of that error message? Obviously it has
to do with the missing character "s" in the error message ?!...

I am a bit confused ...

Regards

Florian

It's always the same. A few minutes after posting the question to the
list I found the solution to my problem. I was using the RRDp.pm piped
Interface to rrdtool. But here I forgot the absolute path to the binary
(1.4.9) and so the script used the system install version (1.4.8) which
doesn't understand the skipscale command...
