nagios list of process IDs must follow -p

[REMY Julien]

It's OK for the starting of Nagios. It missed the /var/run/nagios.pid file.

Thank you.

But in Nagios, if I select menus, the message is : 

Whoops!

Error: Could not read object configuration data!

Here are some things you should check in order to resolve this error:

   1. Verify configuration options using the -v command-line option to check
for errors.
   2. Check the Nagios log file for messages relating to startup or status
data errors.
   3. Make sure you've compiled the main program and the CGIs to use the same
object data storage options (i.e. default text file or template-based file). 

Make sure you read the documentation on installing, configuring and running
Nagios thoroughly before continuing. If all else fails, try sending a message
to one of the mailing lists. More information can be found at
http://www.nagios.org.

What want to say?

Based on what you said previously, it probably means that nagios isn't
starting or isn't able to create the pid file. Try running manually and
look for errors with '/path/to/nagios /path/to/nagios.etc'.

Make sure nagios can write to the files you've specified as lock_file,
state_retention_file, comment_file, downtime_file and temp_file in
nagios.cfg. Make sure the command_file directory exists and is
configured as per the documentation if you have enabled external
commands.

As for your CGI errors, the http logs you provided show no attempted
access to any of the CGI's. Why is that?

Since you're using RHEL4, you'll want to verify that either SELinux is
disabled or you've created a policy that allows http access to the CGI's
and possibly daemon access to other files. If you see 'avc denied'
errors related to nagios in /var/log/messages then you need to disable
or modify your SELinux policy. There are several discussions in the
archives on how to do this.
