This is a line I don't have in my version of MRTG.
The closest I get is: open (RATEUP, join (" ", @exec)."|");

Maybe it helps if you try another version of MRTG.

Obviously something is wrong with the @Exec array.
Print it, may be you spot what's wrong with it.

Put this line just above the open statement:
    print @Exec;
