check_http succeeds on command line but fails in nagios

[Tedman Eng]

Nagios has 2 timeout values to look at.


Global service check timeout in nagios.cfg:
service_check_timeout=#
host_check_timeout=#


Plugin's own timeout setting in checkcommands.cfg:
define command{
        command_name    check_http
        command_line    $USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -t #
        }
