Description changed to:
I don't know what crazy hell I've found myself in, but I'm in it. I have
3 systems running 3 separate broken graphite installs. As far as i'm
aware I'd like to take a step back and say this isn't rocket science. I
don't know if this is a centos issue or if it's just me but god damn i'm
about ready to just no care anymore. I have a lot going on at work and
this is part of a big project and I'm literally getting no where. I'm
not a programmer and i'm not a developer I have extensive linux
knowledge and i'm a network admin. I know some python and i'm not
stupid. Get this:

The problem

One  
          wsp file DON'T write to disk, they write as NONE in the create.log and the directory structure shows up in webui
          No matter what I do I can't get the wsp files to write to disk.

Two
         wsp files WRITE to disk, but don't show up in the webui, the directory structure didn't show in the webui
         I changed a data_dir local_settings.py variable and my entire root directory showed up, the wsp showed up in the webui
         THEN THEY STOP WORKING lol stopped updating across the board
          
I've read till my eyes bleed and my heat hurts, I've been in the IRC channel for over a week. No one knows what's going on no one knows what's causing it. I've checked and rechecked permissions I've tried the insane I've deleted everything started again and to be honest the though to turning up another VM makes me wanna shoot myself. 

What did I do (the jist)
I installed
some deps
whisper
carbon
graphite-web 

I checked deps with the .py file.
Installed any other deps I could find from online resources. 
I ran the setup.py files. Created the carbon.conf schema and wsgi files, 
     set USER = carbon
     mostly kept everything else to default
I hosted the site on apache vhost and all. 
Created the users, 
Set the permission
Created and synced the db file 
I started the carbon-cache.py

everything starts ok everything runs ok, db file gets written too (although not anymore) 
read every tutorial I could find have pastebins like a maniac for the last week feels like 20 hours a day
turned it up on more machines for even more slightly related problems that are all different

definition of insanity

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!
