connect to address 127.0.0.1 and port 0: Connection refused

Hi All,

Greetings of the day !

I have one RHEL EC2 instance running nginx listening to port 80. I have defined commands and service check in host config file to monitor this host.
After running below command manually, I could see it's working perfectly.

./check_tcp -H 13.233.117.236 -p 80 -w 10 -c 20
TCP OK - 0.001 second response time on 13.233.117.236 port 80|time=0.001162s;10.000000;20.000000;0.000000;10.000000

But on GUI it shows an error like below, i tried to see port 80 is open in firewall so what can be reason here ?

connect to address 127.0.0.1 and port 0: Connection refused.

Below command already defined in commands.cfg,

define command {
command_name check_tcp
command_line $USER1$/check_tcp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p $ARG1$ $ARG2$
}

On host nrpe.cfg, defined below command,

command[check_tcp]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_tcp -w 10 -c 20

Thanks,
Piyush Nikhade.

Try adding $ARG1$ to the command.
command[check_tcp]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_tcp -w 10 -c 20 $ARG1$

Thanks for your response, but it shows status as "Unknown" after modifying the nrpe.cfg on client.

Complete alert as below, looks like that is incorrect syntax.

Looks like the plugin wants args in some order. This from the short help output I read...
command[check_tcp]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_tcp $ARG1$ -w 10 -c 20
