is the new way to go for Smokeping under Windows
1) smokewhat?
Smokeping(link) is a nice latency measurement tool, unfortunately it WAS only available for linux/unix…but after the jump, you’ll find how to make it work under Microsoft Windows!
SmokePing is a deluxe latency measurement tool. It can measure, store and display latency, latency distribution and packet loss. SmokePing uses RRDtool to maintain a longterm data-store and to draw pretty graphs, giving up to the minute information on the state of each network connection.
2) What you need
– Perl (choose Perl 5.8.xxx MSI package for Windows)
Yeah Perl is cool and you can have a lot of fun using it
– RRDs module for Perl
This version works for sure, but feel free to download the latest
– fping for windows (thanks to Michael Parson)
– Smokeping
This version works for sure, but feel free to download the latest
– a text editor
There’s a lot of text editors out there… personally, I like pspad
– a web server
Feel free to download, install, configure apache with cgi yourself, or use WAMP (the one I use), or whatever bundled apache/cgi/php/mysql version you want
3) What you do not need
– Money
all listed softwares are (at least) freeware
– A (linux/unix)-running computer
yeah dude, windows rulez da w0rld
4) “Installation”
– Install Activestate Perl
– Install RRDtool for windows (unzip, and launch install.cmd)
– Unzip smokeping to C:\smokeping-2.0.8
– Unzip fping for windows (make sure cygwin1.dll is in the same folder) to C:\smokeping-2.0.8\fping
– Install WAMP to C:\wamp
5) Modifications
a) rename
– C:\smokeping-2.0.8\bin\smokeping.dist into smokeping.pl
– C:\smokeping-2.0.8\bin\tSmoke.dist into tSmoke.pl
b) edit
– C:\smokeping- 2.0.8\bin\smokeping.pl
add (after line 5): use lib qw(C:\smokeping-2.0.8\lib);
change (line 9): Smokeping::main(“etc/config.dist”); into Smokeping::main(“C:/smokeping-2.0.8/etc/config.dist”);
– C:\smokeping-2.0.8\bin\tSmoke.pl
change (line 63): my $cfgfile = “etc/config.dist”; into my $cfgfile = “C:\smokeping-2.0.8\etc\config.dist”;
– C:\smokeping- 2.0.8\lib\Smokeping.pm
change (line 14): use Sys::Syslog qw(:DEFAULT setlogsock); into #use Sys::Syslog qw(:DEFAULT setlogsock);
change (line 21): $ENV{LC_NUMERIC}=’C’; into #$ENV{LC_NUMERIC}=’C’;
change (line 22): POSIX::setlocale(&POSIX::LC_NUMERIC,””); into #POSIX::setlocale(&POSIX::LC_NUMERIC,””);
change (line 2984): daemonize_me $cfg->{General}{piddir}.”/smokeping.pid”; into #daemonize_me $cfg->{General}{piddir}.”/smokeping.pid”;
– C:\wamp\Apache2\conf\httpd.conf
change (line 515): ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ “C:/wamp/Apache2/cgi-bin/” into ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ “c:/wamp/cgi/”
change (line 521): <Directory “C:/wamp/Apache2/cgi-bin/”> into <Directory “c:/wamp/cgi”>
c) move and rename
– Create folder c:\wamp\cgi
– C:\smokeping-2.0.8\htdocs\smokeping.cgi.dist to c:\wamp\cgi\smokeping.pl
d) edit
– c:\wamp\cgi\smokeping.pl
change (line 1): #!/usr/sepp/bin/speedy -w into #!C:/Perl/bin/perl.exe -w
change (line 5): use lib qw(/home/oetiker/data/projects/AADJ-smokeping/dist/lib); into use lib qw(C:\smokeping-2.0.8\lib);
change (line 10): Smokeping::cgi(“/home/oetiker/data/projects/AADJ-smokeping/dist/etc/config”); into Smokeping::cgi(“C:/smokeping-2.0.8/etc/config.dist”);
6) Configuration
– Create folders:
C:\wamp\www\simg
C:\smokeping- 2.0.8\var
– edit configuration file ( C:\smokeping- 2.0.8\etc\config.dist ) no line number here use search function instead :p
owner =
contact =
mailhost =
#sendmail = /usr/lib/sendmail < == Comment this line
imgcache = C:/wamp/www/simg
imgurl = ../simg
datadir = \smokeping-2.0.8/var # designate implicitly c:\smokeping-2.0.8\var
piddir = C:/smokeping-2.0.8/var
cgiurl = http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/smokeping.pl
smokemail = C:/smokeping-2.0.8/etc/smokemail.dist
tmail = C:/smokeping-2.0.8/etc/tmail.dist
# syslogfacility = local0 < = Comment this line!!!!
*** Alerts ***
to =
from =
template = C:/smokeping-2.0.8/etc/basepage.html.dist
+ FPing
binary = C:/smokeping-2.0.8/fping/fping.exe
title =
remark =
# google is for demonstrational purpose only; please refer to smokeping help to set your own targets
menu = Google
title =Google Connectivity
alerts = bigloss,someloss,startloss
host = google.fr
7) Test it!
– open a cmd.exe window, and type C:\smokeping-2.0.8\bin\smokeping.pl
Ok, no weird error messages (if not, please check 5-a, 5-b and 6 again)
– let it run for 10-15 min and try to open http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/smokeping.pl
Ok, no error messages again (if not: for cgi error check 5-b, 5-c, 5-d and 6 again and 5-d and 6 for RRD errors)
(note the 2 buggy images bottom left, we will fix this later)
Now close the cmd.exe windows (a little bit rebel)
Tested! Its Work
