I’ve look at the checkcommands.cfg file, and it is the default definition:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> # 'check_http' command definition<o:p></o:p> define command{<o:p></o:p> command_name check_http<o:p></o:p> command_line $USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$<o:p></o:p> }<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> When I run check_http from the command line, using the same options as listed in the check_http, is says HTTP is ok. I’ve tried both the hostname, host ip address, and the url, all of which seem to come through just fine.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Can somebody point me the right direction to go on this one?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Scott Elliott<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> </div> </body> </html>
