Ok, I removed everything but the temp stuff.  The config file now looks
like this:

base_dir                /usr/local/orca/var/orca/rrd/orcallator
rrd_dir                 .
state_file              orca.state
html_dir                /usr/local/apache/htdocs/orca
expire_images           1
find_times              0:10 1:00 6:00 12:00 19:00
late_interval           interval + 30

group temp {
find_files
/usr/local/orca/var/orca/orcallator/(.*)/temp-percol-\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}
column_description      first_line
date_source             column_name timestamp
date_format             %s
interval                300
reopen                  1
}

I ran orca in the foreground, and I got this:
