Nagios Support Forum

Here you go, had to rename the file from "nagios" to "nagios.txt" since the attachment function doesn't like it not having an extension.

The nagios.lock file location in the /etc/init.d/nagios file is not the same location from the /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg file.
Make sure that the nagios.lock file in both of the config files are the same and that the nagios user can create the files in that folder.
Then kill off all of the nagios processes if there are any running and see if the scripts runs after that.

That did it, thank you so much for all your help!

Your welcome. Glad to help. I'l lock the post for you but feel free to open a new one in the future if needed.
