[collectd] unable to get exec plugin to work

[James Valente]

Collectd:    4.2.0
Fedora Core: 1

I am unable to get my 'exec' plugin script to work.  Below is the 
section of my collectd.conf pertaining to the exec plugin, as well as 
the script I am trying to run (a clone of 'load').

I see the output to the /tmp/loadavg.out file, when I execute it 
manually, and so I am assuming that collectd is receiving the STDOUT 
data as well.  However, when I check the rrd directory, I do not see and 
directories or rrd files pertaining to the data captured.

The script is owned by "jamesv" user, and it is executable by "jamesv" user.

    # HOST=$(hostname)
    HOST="myhostname"
    EPOCH=`date '+%s'`
    PLUGIN="exec-loadavg"

    # using $EPOCH did not work, so try using "N"

    (
    echo "# COUNT = $COUNT"
    echo "${HOST}/${PLUGIN}/ld-one N:$MIN_01"
    echo "${HOST}/${PLUGIN}/ld-ten N:$MIN_05"
    echo "${HOST}/${PLUGIN}/ld-fifteen N:$MIN_15"
    ) | tee -a /tmp/loadavg.out

    echo "foobar $COUNT" >> /tmp/loadavg.junk

    sleep 10

done
