RRDTool Says:...rrd': No such file or directory

[leonardo07746]

Previously Cacti 0.8.7b, I have already installed the xampp 1.6.7 which is a application that includes a big package with php 5.2.6, Apache, filezilla and mysql all together at once, so I installed all these softwares on window xp in my computer and later, I installed the Cacti following the standard procedure led by the documentation, I started to work on it but there is a problem with my graphs, and I m afraid that is given to a error messages that comes out from the rrdtool application, the error is the following:

You double-checked that the crontab entry is in place and crond is running?

Gandalf, I downloaded the cron.zip from http://www.kalab.com/freeware/cron/cron.htm, I extracted it to a directory which a renamed cron, I ran the application cron.exe and automatically a cron.log file was created in that folder, I opened that log and says "28.11.2008 10:25 Cron started", that means that cron is already running, right? so I looked into the contrab.add and it says something like this:

#
# Some samples how to call the rrd log scripts from crontab.
# A Win32 cron service can be downloaded from here:
# http://www.kalab.com/freeware/cron/cron.htm
#

# start rrdtool every 5 mins
0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40.45,50,55 * * * * c:\rrdtool\memlog.pl
2,7,12,17,22,27,32,37,42.47,52,57 * * * * c:\rrdtool\memlog.pl

# start rrdtool every 3 mins
0,3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27,30,33,36,39,42,45,48,51,54,57 * * * * c:\rrdtool\memlog.pl


What comes next, I m still having the same problem, what am I doing wrong, what am I missing?

Moved to windows as I'm not familiar with the cron/at there

1) Why on earth are you using cron instead of scheduled tasks?

2) Read http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=11747 and repost. You really should follow my installation guide completely.
