Can you check if the /etc/maddash/maddash-server/maddash.yaml contains the
appropriate check commands like:

checks:
  Staging_Testbed_-_Ping_Between_Testbeds_-_Ping_Loss-forward:
    added_by_psconfig: 1
    checkInterval: 1800
    description: Queries an esmond MA for bidirectional loss data and alerts 
on response
    name: Loss
    params:
      command: /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_ping_loss.pl -4 -d 
%col.map.address -t 60 -u %maUrl -s %row.map.address -c 0.1 -w 0.001 -r 2700
      graphUrl: 
/perfsonar-graphs/graphWidget.cgi?displaysetdest=%col.displayset&source=%row.map.address&dest=%col.map.address&reverseurl=%maUrlReverse&displaysetsrc=%row.displayset&url=%maUrl

You can than test if the command works properly when run manually from the
command line.
