We don't have any problem like you, but sometimes when we restart it to reload configuration (if we have added hosts or services). Sometimes, the restart fails and we have several instances of nagios running and appears a similar problem. Killing all nagios processes and starting again fix the problem. We configure nagios with centreon and we don't know if this a problem related with centreon or with a startup scripts (centreon uses them). But, if we don't reload nagios, it runs without problems. -- Angel L.
