I am running FC3 and know the error that you are having. Most likely,
you need to give apache read access to this file. On my system, I added
apache and nagios in a group called webnagios, and then I did the
following:
chown :webnagios /var/log/nagios/nagios.log && chmod 640
/var/log/nagios/nagios.log
Hope this helps.
