Error: Cannot open log file '/var/log/nagios/nagios.log' for reading!

[Yugo Ashida]

I get the message:

Error: Cannot open log file '/var/log/nagios/nagios.log' for reading! when i
try and access the Event Log, Alert History or Notifications on the web
page.

Is this because the nagios process is running as root. If so do i just need
to create a username called nagios and then run the service from that?
