pouda,

There should be a View Configuration Snapshot link, click that. Then there should be a list of configurations and the dates they were applied. The lastest one should be red. Can you click on the paper icon associated with that config? This will download a text file that will say why the apply config failed. Post the log here.

Try this when you have that problem again

/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg

Nagios XI will automatically roll back to the last known working configuration if a bad config is detected. Using the Configuration Snapshots page allows you to view the bad snapshot, while allowing the monitoring engine to keep running. See below for more explanation.
