Monitoring of Webpage

[acvillaester]

Hi,
There has been recently a case where the company's website: www.xxx.com itself was redirected to another URL. This redirection was detected quickly but only by coincidence.

I would like to ask if there is existing monitoring of the content of the site (using Nagios).

Thanks.

The check_http plugin included with the nagios-plugins package allows for checking of a page's content as well as the response code of the page.

From the plugin's help section:

Code: Select all

     -s, --string=STRING
        String to expect in the content

...

     -e, --expect=STRING
        Comma-delimited list of strings, at least one of them is expected in
        the first (status) line of the server response (default: HTTP/1.)
        If specified skips all other status line logic (ex: 3xx, 4xx, 5xx processing)

Additionally, here are some sample usages of the plugin (see "Monitoring HTTP"):

If you followed the official documentation for compiling Nagios Core from source, the "Installing The Nagios Plugins" section covers how to setup the nagios-plugins package.
