This tells me that nagios wasn't running with the configuration you  
thought it was (unless you also deleted status.dat, which may have  
settings overrides your object definitions). Seeing what was in  
objects.cache (and status.dat) might have explained the issue.

Then you should tell us this at the least. We're not mind readers and  
when you provide something that is incomplete, with no comment that  
it's known incomplete and why, we have to assume you don't know what  
you gave us. ;) IMHO, you (as in anyone reporting problems) should  
provide *all* related information for any problem regardless of what  
bits you think are needed. Usually the problem is not in what you know  
you need, but in what you don't know you need. =)
