I have just gotten this working myself in the last few days, and had the same problem. Here is what I had to do: (RedHat 7.3, default RPM install of Apache)
Place the smokeping.cgi in the /var/www/cgi-bin directory. I created a smokeping directory under /var/www/html for the image files. Edit the /path-to-smokeping/etc/config file and change settings for the images to: imgcache = /var/www/html/smokeping imgurl = http://server-name/smokeping When I did this, I was then able to start getting the images correctly. Hope this helps!
