Following the instructions on this link I only changed 2 config files.
The first one is cygnus_instance_1.conf (actually I just renamed the example file):

# Who to run cygnus as. Note that you may need to use root if you want
# to run cygnus in a privileged port (<1024)
CYGNUS_USER=cygnus
# Where is the config folder
CONFIG_FOLDER=/usr/cygnus/conf
# Which is the config file
CONFIG_FILE=/usr/cygnus/conf/agent.conf
# Name of the agent. The name of the agent is not trivial, since it is the base for the Flume parameters
# naming conventions, e.g. it appears in .sources.http-source.channels=...
AGENT_NAME=cygnusagent
# Name of the logfile located at /var/log/cygnus. It is important to put the extension '.log' in order to the log rotation works properly
LOGFILE_NAME=cygnus.log
# Administration port. Must be unique per instance
ADMIN_PORT=8081
# Polling interval (seconds) for the configuration reloading
POLLING_INTERVAL=30
And the second config is agent_1.conf (where I removed all but the mysql DB because that is the one I am using):

#=============================================
# To be put in APACHE_FLUME_HOME/conf/agent.conf
#
# General configuration template explaining how to setup a sink of each of the available types (HDFS, CKAN, MySQL).
#=============================================
# The next tree fields set the sources, sinks and channels used by Cygnus. You could use different names than the
# ones suggested below, but in that case make sure you keep coherence in properties names along the configuration file.
# Regarding sinks, you can use multiple types at the same time; the only requirement is to provide a channel for each
# one of them (this example shows how to configure 3 sink types at the same time). Even, you can define more than one
# sink of the same type and sharing the channel in order to improve the performance (this is like having
# multi-threading).
cygnusagent.sources = http-source
cygnusagent.sinks = mysql-sink
cygnusagent.channels = mysql-channel
#=============================================
# source configuration
# channel name where to write the notification events
cygnusagent.sources.http-source.channels = mysql-channel
# source class, must not be changed
cygnusagent.sources.http-source.type = org.apache.flume.source.http.HTTPSource

cygnusagent.sources.http-source.handler.default_service = Trace_Data
# Default service path (service path semantic depends on the persistence sink)
cygnusagent.sources.http-source.handler.default_service_path = Sensor
# Number of channel re-injection retries before a Flume event is definitely discarded (-1 means infinite retries)
cygnusagent.sources.http-source.handler.events_ttl = 10
# Source interceptors, do not change
cygnusagent.sources.http-source.interceptors = ts gi
# TimestampInterceptor, do not change
cygnusagent.sources.http-source.interceptors.ts.type = timestamp

# number of notifications to be included within a processing batch
cygnusagent.sinks.mysql-sink.batch_size = 100

cygunsagent.sinks.mysql-sink.batch_timeout = 30
#=============================================

cygnusagent.channels.mysql-channel.type = memory
# capacity of the channel
cygnusagent.channels.mysql-channel.capacity = 1000
# amount of bytes that can be sent per transaction

#============================================
I even did the test successfully and got the following output:

The test worked because I properly configured java and maven:
[root@localhost fiware-cygnus]# echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/java/jdk1.8.0_65
[root@localhost fiware-cygnus]# java -version
java version "1.8.0_65"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_65-b17)

[root@localhost fiware-cygnus]# mvn -version
Apache Maven 3.0.5 (r01de14724cdef164cd33c7c8c2fe155faf9602da; 2013-02-19 14:51:28+0100)
Maven home: /usr/local/maven
Java version: 1.8.0_65, vendor: Oracle Corporation

OS name: "linux", version: "2.6.32-504.12.2.el6.x86_64", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"
So all good when I hit service cygnus start
because I get:
Starting Cygnus 1... [ OK ]
But then 2 seconds later when I hit service cygnus status
I get:
cygnus-flume-ng dead but pid file exists
Context broker is working perfectly by the way, but it just doesnt know that the subscriptions Im entering are not going anywere...
This is the log from cygnus (there is no timestamp so I ill post the first and the last one):

I demonstrated that I have the latest version of java running and that its home env is set. What am I doing wrong here? I should stress that I havent touched any other config files what so ever. Here is the full list that I found:
