nagios 1.2 and permissions issues

[Janet Post]

I have used nagios -v to check the configuration and I receive 32
warnings and 0 errors.

I have restarted nagios:  /etc/init.d/nagios restart

It seems to be very selective of what it will show me:  I can view host
detail for example (status.cgi?hostgroup=all&style=hostdetail)  but not
a service group  (status.cgi?hostgroup=mail-srv&style=detail).   

Incidently, the host that I'm trying to remove has NOTHING to do with
the mail-srv group that I used above in my example, but it effects it
none-the-less.

Several things can cause this, the most likely being (in my opinion)
that Nagios isn't running. 

Use nagios -v [nagios config file] to verify your config's not broken,
and make sure to reload it before hitting the web interface.

Hello Everyone.

I have just inherited a fairly large 1.2 Nagios setup to maintain.  It
contains over 1500 services and 1000 hosts, and I need to add several
more and crop a number that are no longer active.

Everything works fine until I edit the hosts.cfg file.  I tried
commenting out a host (and leaving everything else in tact) but as soon
as I do, I receive this error:


It appears as though you do not have permission to view information for
any of the services you requested...
