What entries are in nagios.log? Is there a core dump file?

Take a copy of retention.dat, then remove it. Does that start it up?

If that fixes it, there maybe a corruption in retention.dat. Can you  
then reduce the problem down by removing entries in retention.dat to  
find what the problem is. If we can get it recreated, I can add a test  
to pick on this specific error.
