Nagios HTTP check

[Jason Clint]

Hi I am currently trying to do a check with the check_http or
check_http.plplugins.  Both are very similar but for some reason I
cant get either to
work.  I am running the checks like this:

check_http -H -S www.example.com -u /somestring - gives result: HTTP OK
HTTP/1.1 200 OK - 1752 bytes in 0.175 seconds |time=0.175032s;;;0.000000
size=1752B;;;0
check_http.pl -H www.example.com -s -u /somestring - gives result: Status:
CRITICAL HTTP/1.1 400 On Server  MESSAGE:

if I add -p 443 to the first check it gives this result: HTTP WARNING:
HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request

also if I remove the -s option from the second check it works fine.  I know
the page works fine because it comes up however it still does not work with
the check?  Here is a port check:

nc -zv www.example.com 443
Connection to tags.mediaforge.com 443 port [tcp/https] succeeded!

I removed the domain due to company security sorry, anyway it comes back
just fine.  Also in case you are wondering if I am checking against the -u
/somestring I tried the ssl on just the standard site and it gives
forbidden which is what I would expect since the top sits is blocked:



check_http.pl -H www.example.com -s
Status: CRITICAL HTTP/1.1 400 On Server  MESSAGE:
check_http -H -S www.example.com
HTTP WARNING: HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden

And the page shows this:
403 Forbidden
------------------------------
nginx/1.0.8

which is normal!  Any ideas on what I may be doing wrong would be of great
help thanks guys.
