First try deleting the nagios password (if you haven't yet):
Then test, if it still fails try adding nagios to the wheel group:
Then test, if that doesn't fix it, please send me the output of this command:

And attach these file (if you have them):
For the check_icmp issue, please run this command:

So none of those changes fixed it?

Is this system AD/LDAP integrated? (Meaning your credentials when SSHing to the server are AD/LDAP ones)

Hi,

Do i need to reinstall nagios, Unable to get rid of this issue.
Looks like apply configuration is working fine. But the changes dosent reflect.

Hi,

Surprisingly, I have upgraded the nagios version and now i am able to do the below.
Apply Configuration
Configuration applied successfully.
Nagios Core was restarted with an updated configuration.

And also able to run the script without any hassle.
