error when starting nagios

[qwert]

I get the same error.  Are you using FreeBSD?  i also get this error 
when trying to start the nagios daemon:
bash-2.05b# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nagios.sh start cgi.cfg-sample
Starting network monitor: nagios
No lock file found in /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock


I can not find the lock file

Have you fixed your issue?
