I have a nagios.cfg file that was created by the installation.  However,
when I go to view any of the statistical information pages, I get the
following:

Whoops!
Error: Could not read object configuration data!

Here are some things you should check in order to resolve this error:

     1. Verify configuration options using the -v command-line option to
        check for errors.
     2. Check the Nagios log file for messages relating to startup or
        status data errors.
     3. Make sure you've compiled the main program and the CGIs to use
        the same object data storage options (i.e. default text file or
        template-based file).

Make sure you read the documentation on installing, configuring and
running Nagios thoroughly before continuing. If all else fails, try
sending a message to one of the mailing lists. More information can be
found at http://www.nagios.org.
