APAN problems

Thanks for the help.  I figured out that the issue was I had the incorrect permissions on the rrd directory.  The rrd's themselves were correct, but the parent directory was incorrect.  I can now get the ping graphs working fine now.

Serviceextinfo does not work.  I was able to get the graphs showing by using hostextinfo and moving the graph.png to /usr/local/nagios/share/images/logos.

I am now getting another problem in that when I click on the graph I get the page that is supposed to pull up but there are no graphs at all.  When I enter the url to the graph http://localhost/nagios/cgi-bin/generate.cgi?GlenNT&Ping&600 I get a page that states "The image http://localhost/nagios/cgi-bin/generate.cgi?GlenNT&Ping&600 cannot be displayed because it contains errors".  In apancgi.debug I am getting these messages:

Any ideas?

Thanks

Does any serviceextinfo work? Does the user that the web-server runs as 
have read-permissions on the files?
