Fixed. The solution was to keep the opsview.sh script from executing any perl and hard-coding the variables like so:
----
# Check here because slaves do not have opsview.conf
#if [ ! -f $etcdir/opsview.defaults ] ; then
# # return information for use on slaves
# perl -e '
# use lib "'$etcdir'";
# do "instance.cfg";
# print <<"EOF"
#ARCHIVE_RETENTION_DAYS="$archive_retention_days"
#NMIS_MAXTHREADS="$nmis_maxthreads"
#EOF
#'
# exit $?
#fi
#perl -e '
# use lib "'$libdir'";
# use Opsview::Config;
# print qq{ROOT_DIR="}.Opsview::Config->root_dir.qq{"}.$/;
# print <<"EOF"
echo "DB=\"opsview\""
echo "DBUSER=\"user\""
echo "DBPASSWD=\"password\""
echo "DBHOST=\"dbhost\""
echo "BACKUP_DIR=\"/usr/local/nagios/var/backups\""
echo "BACKUP_RETENTION_DAYS=\"30\""
echo "DAILY_BACKUP=\"1\""
echo "ARCHIVE_RETENTION_DAYS=\"180\""
echo "SNMPTRAPEXCEPTION_RETENTION_DAYS=\"60\""
echo "ODW_DB=\"odw\""
echo "ODW_DBUSER=\"user\""
echo "ODW_DBPASSWD=\"password\""
echo "ODW_DBHOST=\"dbhost\""
echo "RUNTIME_DB=\"runtime\""
echo "RUNTIME_DBUSER=\"user\""
echo "RUNTIME_DBPASSWD=\"password\""
echo "RUNTIME_DBHOST=\"dbhost\""
echo "USE_PREFORK=\"0\""
echo "USE_LIGHTTPD=\"0\""
echo "LIGHTTPD_DAEMONS=\"16\""
echo "LIGHTTPD_SOCKET=\"/usr/local/nagios/var/opsview_web_socket\""
echo "USE_HTTPS=\"0\""
echo "REPORTS_DB=\"reports\""
echo "REPORTS_DBUSER=\"user\""
echo "REPORTS_DBPASSWD=\"password\""
echo "REPORTS_DBHOST=\"dbhost\""
echo "NMIS_MAXTHREADS=\"2\""
#EOF
#'
----
It is ugly, but got the job done!
Cheers!

Thanks, Kurt. I am actually going to be using MySQL located on a different server. But I started mysqld on this machine just to see if that made a difference. It did not help:

The problem appears to be the perl commands within this part of the opsview.sh script:

I'd appreciate it if somebody could help me solve this problem so I can
get opsview running.
Cheers!

Sounds you need to actually start up mysql first. Probably need to do:
service mysqld start
chkconfig mysqld on
Run those commands above and then try and your install again.
