How to debug a check_http problem?

[Götz Reinicke]

Hi,

pwd
/usr/local/nagios/libexec

./check_http -H www.filmakademie.de
HTTP OK HTTP/1.1 200 OK - 24726 bytes in 1,560 seconds 
|time=1,560469s;;;0,000000 size=24726B;;;0


# 'check_http' command definition
define command{
         command_name    check_http
         command_line    $USER1$/check_http -I $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$
         }


O.K. the problem is, that the command definition uses the IP Address ... 
changing the "-I" option to "-H" solves my problem.

AFAIK I haven't ever touched this command definition....

Thanks so far and best regards

Götz Reinicke
