New active checks stuck in PENDING

[Ryan C Ash]

Cliff notes: ALL active checks are not executing

MY ENV: nagios 3.2.0, RHEL 5.4

I have an earlier post where I discussed this problem in detail.

The services show up in the GUI but they are in a permanent PENDING. if
I reload/restart the GUI indicates an updated scheduled check time but
it never appears to occur, i.e I see nothing in nagios.log or
nagios.debug. Here is my service definition:
		define service {
		        service_description
NG-ETL-LINUX-PERF_swap_used
		        display_name             Linux swap used
		        servicegroups
NG-ETL-LINUX-PERF_service_group
		        hostgroup_name           NG-ETL-LINUX-PERF
		        check_command            check_nrpe!check_swap
		        passive_checks_enabled   0
		        active_checks_enabled    1
		        check_interval           5
		        normal_check_interval    5
		        max_check_attempts       1
		        check_period                    24x7
; The service can be checked at any time of the day
		        }


As you can see it doesn't use a template and it has only the bare
minimum because I am trying to figure out what is wrong.

I really need help trying to determine why the active checks are not
being executed.
