It seems that whatever you used to install nagios either didn't create
the archives directory or created it in a different place than is
defined in nagios.cfg. See if it was created elsewhere with 'locate
archives'. In both cases your historical data has almost certainly not
been retained.

You can always just create the directory --

mkdir -p /opt/local/var/nagios
chmod 755 /opt/local/var/nagios
chown <your nagios user>:<your nagios group> /opt/local/var/nagios
