Hi,
As I mentioned before, the http_check command is not available in the Nagios Server.
Is it possible to install that command?
Kind regards,
PSA

Also, if your proxy doesn't require a username/password, then you can skip that part. Let's just see if it tries to go out and reach the site.
So, it's
Code: Select all
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -I <SiteIP>
NOT
Code: Select all
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/http_check -I <SiteIP>

Hi,
[root@localhost ~]# check_http
-bash: check_http: command not found
[root@localhost ~]# http_check
-bash: http_check: command not found
[root@localhost ~]#
No luck...

you aren't in the directory.... You need the full path
Code: Select all
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -I <SiteIP>
for example
Code: Select all
[root@localhost ~]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -I www.nagios.com
HTTP OK: HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently - 461 bytes in 0.069 second response time |time=0.069000s;;;0.000000 size=461B;;;0

Are you sure you have connectivity to that site from your Nagios server? I get this
Code: Select all
[root@localhost ~]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -I www.psasines.pt
HTTP OK: HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently - 409 bytes in 0.686 second response time |time=0.685648s;;;0.000000 size=409B;;;0
can you ping it?
