permissions on the RRD files set to 666?

change the OID you are monitoring to something which doesn't exist ... 
that should generate errors in the log file ... this exercise just 
proves that you're looking at the right log file

change the OID to something else which you are successfully monitoring 
elsewhere, see if that changes behavior

i'm stabbing here ... trying to come up with a way to trouble-shoot 
this, rather than explain how it could be happening
