Did you by accident disable the notifications?
On the Nagios web interface, click on Tactical Overview.
At the end of the page (Monitoring Features) check that Notifications are

It would make sense as you don't have SELinux and all commands seem to work
from command-line (you also checked them with your Nagios user, not root,
right?).

contains a definitive record of customers, application performance,
security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this
