ok, this means that the rrdcached permissions are not set up correctly.
You'll need to start rrdcached with FLUSH,UPDATE,FLUSHALL permissions.
Here's what we use at INEX:

/usr/local/bin/rrdcached -s www -m 0666 -F \
	-l unix:/var/run/rrdcached.sock \
	-p /var/run/rrdcached.pid \
	-j /var/db/rrdcached/journal/ \
	-b /var/db/rrdcached/db/ \
	-P FLUSH,UPDATE,FLUSHALL

If you're using debian or ubuntu, you can edit the startup options in
/etc/defaults/rrdcached and then use 'service rrdcached restart'.
