Issue with command definition

Hello
I'm a new user of nagios, I already managed to create multiple devices , services..etc...
Now I have an error that I don't understand

i have create a new command

define command {
command_name check_snmpv1
command_line $USER1$/check_snmp -C public -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -o $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ -l $ARG
5$ -u $ARG4$
}

this command is in a file ( commands.cfg ) which is read by nagios ( I'm sure of this as all the other commands are in this file ..)

I created some services with this command , but I have the following error while verifying the nagios.cfg

Is the file that you added the command definition to included in the main nagios.cfg file?

yes, look at the last line
it says "Processing object config file '/usr/local/etc/nagios/objects/commands.cfg'..."

this is why I don't understand ...

Can I see a sample config of one of those services that's calling the command?

Sure ! :D
here it is

define command {
command_name check_snmp
command_line $USER1$/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$
}

define command {
command_name check_snmpv1
command_line $USER1$/check_snmp -C public -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -o $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ -l $ARG
5$ -u $ARG4$
}

check_snmp is found and available, not check_snmpv1 !!!

Could you include the *service* definition in addition to the command one?
