That's the reason I installed MRTG in a directory without spaces.
But you can still run it if you enclose the path in quotes in your batch
file:

"c:\program files\path with spaces\MRTG\Bin\mrtg.cfg"

Hope it helps.

Subject: [mrtg] Windows/DOS path problem

I have followed the instructions for installing MRTG on my machine but
when I try to run the config file I get an [erroneous] error message
telling me I can't have spaces in my path on Windows machines (followed
by a misspelled statement about converting to Linux).  I have converted
my path to c:\progra~1\etc. format so there are no spaces and it still
errors.  Looking at the archives, however, it seems some people have
gotten it to work this way.  Can anyway point out what I'm doing wrong?
 
Thank you,
Allan Cleaveland
