Hi all,
I am a newbie with Orca. Anyways, I completely configured and installed
Orca on my Linux Fedora Core 1 system. I have followed the directions in
the INSTALL document. When I attempt to run Orca, I get the following:

[root at hostname bin]# ./orca -v ../lib/orcallator.cfg
Orca version 0.27 using RRDs version 1.000461 at Mon Mar 15 15:35:19
2004.

./orca: warning: no files found for `find_files' for `group orcallator'
in `orcallator.cfg'.

Current running time is 0:00 minutes.
./orca: no data files found.  Make sure `find_files' parameter is set
properly.

Is there something I am missing? I searched the archives and found a
similar issue, but it appeared to be related to Solaris.

The contents of the find_files section of orcallator.cfg are:

group orcallator {
find_files
/usr/local/bin/orca/var/orcallator/(.*)/(?:(?:orcallator)|(?:percol))-\d
{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}(?:-\d{3,})?(?:\.(?:Z

                          my ($ay, $am, $ad) = $a =~
/-(\d{4})-(\d\d)-(\d\d)/;
                          my ($by, $bm, $bd) = $b =~
/-(\d{4})-(\d\d)-(\d\d)/;
                          if (my $c = (( $ay       <=>  $by) ||
                                       ( $am       <=>  $bm) ||
                                       (($ad >> 3) <=> ($bd >> 3)))) {
                            return 2*$c;
                          }
                          $ad <=> $bd;
                        }
}

Thanks in advance.
