perfparse doesn't display hosts, services - UPDATE

[John Christian]

Oops. I should also have included this handy message
from nagios.log:

[1126658872] Nagios 2.0b4 starting... (PID=28393)
[1126658872] LOG VERSION: 2.0
[1126658872] Finished daemonizing... (New PID=28394)
[1126658872] Warning: File
'/usr/local/nagios/var/perfdata-service.log' could not
be opened - service performance data will not be
written to file!
