Probably a trivial permission issue?

[Ralph.Grothe at itdz-berlin.de]

Hi,

while logged in in my Nagios' server web realm with nagiosadmin
credentials, 
who is supposed to have full permission,

$ grep nagiosadmin /opt/sw/nagios/etc/cgi.cfg|grep -v ^#
authorized_for_all_services=nagiosadmin
authorized_for_all_hosts=nagiosadmin
authorized_for_all_service_commands=nagiosadmin
authorized_for_all_host_commands=nagiosadmin

and clicking on the "view notifications for this host" link
I get the following:

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


How come?
The nagios.log is world readable (even by the underprivileged
httpd proc)

$ ll /opt/sw/nagios/var/log/nagios.log 
-rw-rw-r--   1 nagios   nagios    144200 Oct 07 13:54
/opt/sw/nagios/var/log/nagios.log


Or is the error message above only malformed, and it should read
"cannot acquire shared file lock on ..."?


Regards
Ralph
