People normally tend to have problems installing it on Ubuntu and Debian systems, but not on RedHat/CentOS or Fedora systems. Your case is really weird. Make sure that your CentOS is an original system, in the fact that you aren't using any tool with 'root' permissions that could modify some parts of your system (CPanel, Plesk, etc.) Also, consider give more information that a simple ', but I get errors on start', and paste the exact error messages and your current monitorix.conf file. Finally, you might want to chat directly with me (Mikaku) on IRC Freenode at #monitorix channel, to speed up the resolution time. Let me know.
