      I would try removing the RRD graphics and restarting the box.
      Did you install something at the time the graphs stopped working? Are you low on disk space?

            Maybe there is a clue in the system log. Please post the output of pfSense shell command```
            clog /var/log/system.log | grep rrd

                Maybe there is more than one process trying to update the RRD data (and ntop with pid 63859 is the second). I don't have ntop on my system and rrd graphs seem OK. I wonder why ntop is (apparently) trying to meddle with the rrd files.

                  looks, there is only one "ntop" running

                  
[2.0.1-RELEASE][root@pfsense.xxx.local]/etc/inc(23): ps aux | grep ntop

                  But rrd graphics are empty ….

                    looks, there is only one "ntop" running

                    Sorry, I didn't mean to suggest there were multiple copies of ntop running. But I have observed some programs get started twice. Is the time stamp on the message I quote close to the system startup time?

                    Also, I didn't look closly enough at the path reported in the quoted message: /var/db/ntop/rrd/interfaces/WAN/ethernetPkts.rrd is not a path to "standard" rrd file, for example: /var/db/rrd/lan-packets.rrd

                    Maybe this report is a red herring.
