I'm having the exact same problem, HTTPS only url's don't work.
The HTTP service check works fine but the host check shows me "CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds"

Monitor the host every 5 minutes.

Re-check the host every 1 minutes up to 5 times before generating an alert.

Monitor the host with this command... (Advanced users only)
(empty) <- It shouldn't be since the wizard should've specified here it was an https check

When I add the same that is on the HTTP check (check_xi_service_http! -H <fqdn> -f ok -I <ip> -u "/" -S -p 443) then the check runs with HTTPS

I guess the problem is on the wizard not adding all the needed args on the monitor command?

Yep, that was it.

I modified the wizard (attached) to have the expected behavior on new websites added.

You can add it through Admin -> Manage Config Wizards
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.
