HTTP down reported as host down

[dlukinski]

Hi

We've got a configuration where there service checking on HTTP (web-inject) of the specific URL running from the host reports the entire host down:
myserver.mydomain View service status details for this host Down 2d 10h 33m 43s 2/2 2016-03-27 23:20:44 HTTP CRITICAL - No data received from host

Host (and other services) are actually up, only this HTTP looks this way:

***** Nagios XI Alert *****

Nagios has detected a problem with this host.

Notification Type: PROBLEM

myserver.mydomain View service status details for this host Web Transaction - EDI check Critical 2d 10h 57m 20s 5/5 2016-03-27 23:37:06 WebInject CRITICAL - Test case number 1 failed

What to do?

Can you show us the config of the myserver.mydomain host? I assume it uses the "xiwizard_webtransaction_host" template, which uses "check_http".

Can you ping "myserver.mydomain" host? Perhaps you can change the host check command to "check_ping" in order to fix the issue.

Did you reply to a wrong thread? What does "check_oracle_tablespaces" has to do with the issue at hand?

I did. suggestion to use Ping worked, thank you (did not realize that default check could be anything)
