What's in /etc/munin/munin.conf?

# Example configuration file for Munin, generated by 'make build'

# The next three variables specifies where the location of the RRD

# must be writable by the user running munin-cron.

Please use

[ayt.th.com]
   address 127.0.0.1
   use_node_name yes

instead of

[ayt.th.com]
   address localhost
   use_node_name yes

What's in /etc/hosts?

[wizard]

Detail in file /etc/hosts

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 mail.ayt.th.com mail localhost.localdomain localhost

Did you change /etc/munin/munin.conf and restart munin? Does it work now?

in your Apache configuration for that directory and restart Apache.
