Special characters in services.cfg file

[Chris Dos]

I'm having problem getting a command to run in services.cfg file when it works fine from the command line.

>From the command line:
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http -H 10.20.40.41 -w 2 -c 5 -t 10 -u
http://cleopatra/userservice/signup/getstates.flx -T 'text/xml' -P '<request foruser="1" forgroup="1"
fordomain="1" basedomain="1" cultureinfo="en-US" coreproductid="1" products="" systemtypeid="1"
timezoneinfo="1|Mountain Standard Time (US & Canada & Mexico)|MST|Mountain Daylight
Time|-7|0|1|0|3|0|1|2|0|11|0|0|2|0"> <getStates countryid="1" /> </request>' -s 'Colorado'

results in:
HTTP OK HTTP/1.1 200 OK - 0.004 second response time

Putting in services.cfg:
define service{
        use                             generic-service         ; Name of service template to use
        host_name                       Cleopatra
        service_description             HTTP_Post_States
        is_volatile                     0
        check_period                    24x7
        max_check_attempts              3
        normal_check_interval           1
        retry_check_interval            1
        contact_groups                  Admins_E-mails,Admins_Pagers
        notification_interval           30
        notification_period             24x7
        notification_options            w,u,c,r
        check_command                   check_http!-w 2 -c 5 -t 10 -u
http://cleopatra/userservice/signup/getstates.flx -T 'text/xml' -P '<request foruser="1" forgroup="1"
fordomain="1" basedomain="1" cultureinfo="en-US" coreproductid="1" products="" systemtypeid="1"
timezoneinfo="1|Mountain Standard Time (US & Canada & Mexico)|MST|Mountain Daylight
Time|-7|0|1|0|3|0|1|2|0|11|0|0|2|0"> <getStates countryid="1" /> </request>'
        }

In the nagios web page I get an error of "no output"

I've narrowed it down to a problem in the Post section.  Are there any characters in this request that would
prevent it from working in the services.cfg file?
