Hi Yves, Thanks for replying. For collectd server, we are using version Version: 5.1.0-3ubuntu1. For collectd clients, we are using version Version 4.10.1-2.1ubuntu7. We see same error on both systems.
Tried only using RRDCached plug-in, same error happens. I tested the permissions with everyone has read\write permission to /var/lib/rrdcached/db/collectd, it still has the same error. We don't have a collectd or rrdcached account in /etc/passwd. One question: if we just use RRDTool plugin, do we get same rrd file caching as RRDCached plugin? If not, what are the differences? Thanks.

Sometimes, it helps. For what I can say now, I think that you should not use both rrdcached and rrdtool. If you use rrdcached, do not forget to add "CreateFiles true". Also check that collectd (and rrdcached if you are using it) has the permissions to go to /var/lib/rrdcached/db/collectd and then to write files there.
