check_http problem with chunked encoding in v2.1.1

[frank_brandt]

Hi,

I can see in release notes of v2.1.0 there were some changes in check_http regarding chunked encoding but text is broken with v2.1.1. The server is running WebSphere Application Server with a simple servlet that checks availability of an application and returns a few lines (no HTML). I had to obfuscate some information so the 0084 length info from v2.0.3 does not fit with the real length anymore but you can see that status and duration strings in the content is broken with v2.1.1

Best Regards,
Frank

Frank,

There's a possible fix in the 'maint' branch of nagios plugins (https://github.com/nagios-plugins/nagio ... int.tar.gz). Please give it a test and see if it works for you.
