No Data Displayed in PRTG Live Graph
Please reset (delete) the graph cache so PRTG can rebuild it.
Option 1: Automatically
In current PRTG versions, you can recalculate the graph cache directly from the PRTG web interface. In previous version, use one of the other options.
- Open the PRTG web interface.
- Select Setup | System Administration | Administrative Tools from the main menu bar.
- Navigate to section Recalculate PRTG Graph Data Cache.
- Click on the Go! button to start the recalculation.
Note: This will trigger a restart of your PRTG core server.
In previous PRTG versions as of PRTG 12, you find the graph recalculation option in the PRTG Server Administrator tool.
Option 2: Manually
- Stop both PRTG services (core and probe).
- Navigate to your data folder (You can look it up in the PRTG Administration Tool on the Core Server tab. See this article for detailed information.)
- Delete the PRTG Graph Data Cache.dat file
- Restart the PRTG services
After Cache Reset
- Log in to the PRTG web interface
- Go to Setup | PRTG Status | System Status and check the background tasks. It should state that it is calculating historic data.
Then,
- Refresh the page from time to time (is the number being reduced?)
- Let it run until it is done and then check if your graph is available.
- Note: System performance may be a affected while recalculation is running

Dear Brun
Did you already try to delete the Graph Data cache? "Option 2: Manually" is the best way to enforce a Graph Data cache recalculation. Once the previous cache has been deleted, it can take some hours to rebuild a new cache.
