Premature end of script headers

[Tedman Eng]

Refer to your httpd logs, look for errors.  
Maybe even post them here, we're not psychic.

"Permission Denied" is most likely in your httpd logs.

Double-check file and directory permissions.
Check the parent directory too, and it's parent, etc...

The http server usually runs as either "apache" or "nobody".
Can either of those accounts read the nagios/var directory?

Double-check httpd configuration, is the directory containing your CGI's
"Script Executable"? (ie Options ExecCGI)
