Centos 5.4, no graphs visible under Tree

Okay, I'm trying to get graphite working on Centos 5.4, this is in a Vmware virtual machine. It's a fresh install. I've blown away the VM and started over twice, just in case I missed something stupid.

It seams like Carbon is working, Graphite is able to graph when I manually enter the info. Problem is, I see no graphs under Tree. It's all blank. I might be able to send the VM somewhere if need be, but be warned it's 1 gig uncompressed.

Here are my notes:

------------------------------
Centos 5.4, fresh install on a fresh VMware Virtual Machine.

Graphite Install (0.9.4):

Following Instructions on site (http://graphite.wikidot.com/installation)

- Needed non centos rpms, Used http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/

pyparsing-1.5.0-3.el5.noarch.rpm
python-simplejson-2.0.3-2.el5.i386.rpm
python-sqlite2-2.3.3-1.el5.i386.rpm
python-memcached-1.40-2.el5.noarch.rpm

installed
Django-1.1.1-1.el5.src.rpm
ext-2.3.0.zip

------------------------------
Instructions on Website typo:

cd /usr/local/graphite/web/ <-- dir doesn't exist
sudo python manage.py syncdb
# you will be prompted to create an admin user, this is a good idea

I'm taking it to be
cd /usr/local/graphite/webapp/web

which returns:

Could not import web.local_settings, using defaults!

------------------------------
cd /usr/local/graphite/carbon
sh init-script.sh start
python example-client.py
(no errors so far, checked all carbon logs.)

------------------------------
copied graphite-vhost.conf into apache dir

navigate to localhost :

I see top bar (graphite logo, cli , login/documentation) but nothing else. Something wrong here.

going thru log files I see:

------------------------------
webapp-access.log:

192.168.1.65 - - [04/Nov/2009:21:14:08 -0600] "GET /content/js/extJS/adapter/prototype/prototype.js HTTP/1.1" 404 322

------------------------------
webapp-error.log

[Wed Nov 04 21:14:08 2009] [error] [client 192.168.1.65] File does not exist: /usr/local/graphite/webapp/content/js/extJS/adapter/prototype/prototype.js,

------------------------------
Is this an issue with follow symlinks?

Added
Options FollowSymLinks to vhost-graphite.conf

Didn't help, same files not found. Should have looked at the dir.. duh.

copied
/opt/graphite-0.9.4/webapp/content/js/scriptaculous/effects.js
/opt/graphite-0.9.4/webapp/content/js/scriptaculous/scriptaculous.js
/opt/graphite-0.9.4/webapp/content/js/window/prototype.js
to
/usr/local/graphite/webapp/content/js/extJS/adapter/prototype
dir

Now we have a pretty side bar with Graphite, My Graphs and User Graphs displayed. (I am logged in)

No graphs are visible under any of the folders (graphite, my graphs, user graphs).

copied dragdrop.js, and the *.js from scriptaculous dir to adapter dir, for good measure.
------------------------------
Checking webapp-error.log, no errors
Checking webapp-access.log, all 200 (ok) and 304 (not modified)
------------------------------
Test to see if we have graph data:

http://localhost/render?target=system.loadavg_15min

Yup we have a graph.
------------------------------

Why are there no graphs under the TREE tab (graphite, My graphs, User Graphs) ?

------------------------------

In ~web/local_settings.py
changed DEBUG=True
set MEMCACHE_HOSTS = [] (not using memcached atm)

service httpd restart
No change.
------------------------------
graphite-vhost.conf

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName graphite
        DocumentRoot "/usr/local/graphite//webapp"
        <Location "/">

didn't like the look of the extra "/" in DocumentRoot, changed it, added trailing /, no change, no change.
changed Docroot to /usr/local/graphite/webapp/web OOPS don't do this. restored original.

webapp-access.log, when i click each thing under tree.

Debug=True doesn't seam to have done anything.

I've seen like 2 answers saying symlinks don't work. copying that shit over.

cp -rP /opt/ext-2.3.0 extJS

service httpd restart
No change.

Okay, so. Carbon seams to be working. I have graph data for the example that I can see if I
manually enter it. I see no errors in any particular log files.
