Any Error's will prevent nagios from starting. That's a pretty common
convention for daemons. You must fix the three configuration errors
above before nagios will start.
For the first two errors, you have host{} and service{} definitions
that reference other definitions named 'generic-host' and 'generic-
service'. They do not exist in a cfg file that you've told nagios to
load. Use grep to find which file they exist in and make sure it's
listed as a cfg_file in nagios.cfg.
For the last error, nagios has been told to listen for external
commands but is unable to create the 'file' needed to do that under /
usr/local/nagios/var/rw. Does that directory exist and is it owned and
readable/writable by the nagios user? If you installed from source, I
believe the make command to do that is 'make install-commandmode' from
within the nagios source tree, or you can just create the rw directory
(but not the nagios.cmd file) and give it nagios ownership and rwx
permissions.

[Nagios-users] Problem starting nagios
I am trying to get nagios 2.0rc2 set up, and I am using NagiosQL to do my configuration management. I have edited the config files to move all the configuration files into /etc/nagios like nagiosQL wants, but when I do a configuration check it tells me something is wrong with line 15 of my cgi.cfg, which is the line that states: main_config_file=/etc/nagios/nagios.cfg Anyone have any ideas?
