Hello I'm new in cacti. And I just done the installation. But, when I'm trying to make a graph, the RRDTool give an ERROR: short read while reading header rrd->stat_read like this picture. What should I do to make my graph can be seen?

This looks almost like an internal RRDtool error. Likely a bad version of RRDtool.

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?

Hi, where can I find RRDTool for windows 1.4+? I have some graph troubble and a possible cause is my older 1.2 version...

Thanks in advance,

Google for it. I know the latest RRDtool 1.8 has good build instructions, but you have to learn tech like downloading minigw and other components.
