FAQ ID F0332 describes the problem I am having, but I do not understand the meaning or how to check/verify the third item (3.) Specifically I do not understand (default text file or template-based file) Are these separate configure options? I can start over and re-configure everything, but wanted to understand if I am missing something before doing so. I am running Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 2.4.21-9.EL, Nagios 2.10, Pluggins 1.4.11, and gd 2.0.36. ------------------------------------------------------------------ FAQ ID F0332 Title:Error: Could not read object configuration data! Description:When clicking on any of the links on the left hand side you get: Error: Could not read object configuration data! Here are some things you should check in order to resolve this error: 1. Verify configuration options using the -v command-line option to check for errors. 2. Check the Nagios log file for messages relating to startup or status data errors. 3. Make sure you've compiled the main program and the CGIs to use the same object data storage options (i.e. default text file or template-based file). ------------------------------------------------------------------ 1. nagios -v looks good. ( Total Warnings: 0 Total Errors: 0 ) 2. log file shows ( no errors ) [1201628088] Nagios 2.10 starting... (PID=2331) [1201628088] LOG VERSION: 2.0 [1201628088] Finished daemonizing...

The directories/files/permissions all look good. I can successfully run the check_ping and check_http. I do recall seeing a warning in regards to gd. I believe I read that it could be ignored somewhere. I hope that is the case. /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/include exist, and have files in them.
