It should work if you apply the changes concerning the histogram
names in both files.

The data file should have names as such: /REF/H1_blablabla/pT_curr1

while the MC histo name should read  /H1_blablabla/pT_curr1
(omitting the trailing "/REF").

If you put the data file into some place where Rivet can find it 
(RIVET_REF_PATH)
rivet-mkhtml should work as expected.

Hope that helps,
Holger
