It's a holdover from the Netsaint/Nagios-1 days. You're using
template-based.

Is SELinux enabled? That could be a problem if you haven't given proper
access to the nagios files from httpd.

I

What are the permissions on /usr/local/nagios/var/objects.cache,
status.dat and directories above. They should be such that your web
server can read them. Typically the files are 644 and 664 nagios:nagios
respectively, directories 755. Again, SELinux could be getting you here
if you have the normal file permissions set correctly. Also, does
objects.cache have content fairly closely matching your config (all
templates expanded)?
