The error message for that problem is very explicit.
The rest of the that message that you didn't paste into your message 
tells you what you need to do
It will say something along the lines of:

"You will need to change the permissions on the file or remove it. The 
actual error text is: Can't create /tmp/cwpss_checkcpu_.state"

Do what it says and you should be ok

Something might not be quite right with the ini files you have. Try this -
1) Try downloading them again, try the command again
2) Remove the ini files one at time, running the command after each 
removal until the error goes away. Leave check_wmi_plus.ini to last as 
that is the one that contains the checkts checks. This should identify 
which one has the error.
3) Zip/tar them up and send them to me
