      I started having issues with the RRD Graphs (traffic only) with the 3/17 build. I just upgraded to the 3/20 build, and the same issue is happening.

      Everytime I go to the RRD Graphs for Traffic, the system log gets filled up with the following errors:

        I am seeing the same problem on the 22/03/11 build 32bit as well. Seems to of happened when the 95th percentile was committed to the snapshots.

          I had the same issue.

          today I logged into my firewall and deleted the rrd files /var/db/rrd/  (careful not to delete the updaterrd.sh script in there).

          The result of that was I lost all of my historic data. On the plus side my graphs started working again.

          Hope this helps.

            Although a fix I would rather not loose old data.

              Yeah, I'm kind of partial to my data. =)

                Same problem here.. rdd graphs fail to work. System logs show :

                Since I don't really care about the data.. I did try deleting all the files in the /var/db/rrd folder except for the .sh file.. and after trying to access rrd I get the same error again (see above)

                    Check which theme you are using and then add the missing color to 'usr\local\www\themes<your theme="">\rrdcolors.inc.php'

                    $colortraffic95 = array("660000", "FF0000");
```</your>

                      I don't think that helped; is there something I'm missing?

                            Most of those should be fixed in new snapshots, but I did find a couple issues with theme colors (in the corporate and nervecenter themes).
