Hi All,
Turns out that the FCGI wrapper process was running under a different user
than both the web server and nagios and although CGI scripts were running,
that may have contributed to the problem.
I also noticed that there were other nagios processes running at the same
time that should have been previously killed but were not so that may also
have been a contributing factor.
I've now normalized all of the web processes with the same user:
1. Nginx
2. PHP
3. FCGIWrapper
4. Nagios service
and the problem seems to be resolved.
Thanks to everyone for their support, suggestions and help.

Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized
environment for deploying applications. Does it make network security
easier or more difficult to achieve? Read this whitepaper to separate the
two and get a better understanding.
