It looks like a problems with the ports systems, but you can try the
following options below.

In your poller file you have to specify the the right path where the
poller drops the files that it creates OR better still you have to
make sure that all the newly created RRD's are created in the right
document root directory and you will be able to read all the files
once you have the right permissions as well.

Hope it helps.
