nevermind - I broke cacti

[Soybomb]

So I had an older cacti like .8.5 or something and upgraded a while back along with a bunch of other software on my server. Everything was good and I was running 0.8.6c Anyway the server locked up and had to be powered off to reset today, upon it coming back up my graphs were blank. I logged in and turned on graph debug and saw:
ERROR: can't make a graph without contents

What happened? The SQL is on a different server, its up accessable, and I can log into it with the cacti information. I used mysql check on the entire cacti database and it says its cool. So whats the underlying cause of that error message? SQL related? Did some config file on the machine get hosed when it went down improperly?
Nevermind it looks like the mysql server was crapping out
