I had the same issue and decided to investigate. My error log looked
like this:
ERROR: opening '/var/lib/backuppc/log/pool.rrd': Permission denied:
/usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin/index.cgi, referer:
http://servername/backuppc/index.cgi
I found that I had to give execute permissions to the folders above and
read permissions to "everyone" on the pool.rrd then the graph appeared.
It would seem that the CGI script is executing as "everyone" vs
"backuppc user"
Here are the minimal permission changes I made to get things to work.
Changed BackupPC directory permission from: 2750 to 2751 --> drwxr-s--x
backuppc backuppc
Changed BackupPC/log directory permission from: 750 to 751 -->
drwxr-x--x backuppc backuppc log
Changed BackupPC/log/pool.rrd directory permission from: 640 to 754 -->
-rwxr-xr-- backuppc backuppc pool.rrd
My server is blocked from public access, so I was comfortable making
this change. I would be very happy to hear anyone's comments regarding
what type of security issue this may be -and if there is another way to
better way to solve this.

Hello Alexander,
In the /var/lib/backuppc/log/pool.rrd Apache2 log file is an access
denied error. I attach the file.
What can I do ?

I've seen such an error before, but I don't remember what caused the problem. I
think CGI returns something else instead of image. If you are lucky it might be
an error message. Try to save this object as file and inspect its content.
