Hi,

I've now set contact_name in contacts.cfg to the same as my username in
apache, and added myself to the necessary contact groups in
contactgroups.cfg, but I still get this error message.

After Nagios is restarted there are no useful messages in the logs, so
I"m not getting any hints that way unfortunately.

As a side issue (possibly related?) it doesn't appear to be
creating/writing the status.log file, yet it is all up and running and
the config file checks all pass sucessfully. Any further thoughts?

Regards

Kyle
