Hmmm... when I look at my self-compiled nagios 1.2 on SLES 8, I see that 
there are 2 files you have to maintain for mysql. Did you look at cgi.cfg?

If yes - I don't know what may be the cause then. I remember I made the 
entries in one of those and forgot the other. And I had quite similar errors...

HTH now ;-)
