Apache was restarted after adding these?

That really feels like SELinux. You don't see any 'avc denied' messages
in /var/log/messages?

Check the permissions on the files in ~nagios/var (and the directory
itself). Specifically, comments.dat, downtime.dat, nagios.log,
objects.cache, status.dat and the archives.
