Try running it in the foreground (without -d). If you don't see anything interesting when it dies, run it in the foreground through strace (strace -fFs512 /path/to/nagios -c /path/to/nagios.cfg).

Verify you haven't run out of disk space or anything simple like that. If you're running SElinux, verify that there are no errors related to it in /var/log/messages.

Is there anything special about the install or the machine it's running on? Are any of the nagios directories mounted from remote machines?
