Startup fails - Nagios -2.0b3

[Albert Whale]

This is fresh installation from rpms (no help from the Mandriva Experts 
list) on Mandriva 10.2, with Nagios 2.0b3.  This is my second attempt 
for installation (the first attempt was on Mandrake 10.1).  Anyway, 
neither installation (from rpm or source compilation) appears to run.

The review of the configuration file indicates there are no problems:

nagios -v /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg

Nagios 2.0b3

Things look okay - No serious problems were detected during the
pre-flight check

However when I launch the daemon here is what I get in the logfile:

nagios -d /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg

Jul 21 08:38:33 sz7 nagios: Nagios 2.0b3 starting... (PID=27491)
Jul 21 08:38:33 sz7 nagios: LOG VERSION: 2.0
Jul 21 08:38:33 sz7 nagios: Bailing out due to one or more errors
encountered in the configuration files.  Run Nagios from the command
line with the -v option to verify your config before restarting. (PID=27491)

Any suggestions where to turn next?
