Nagios Support Forum

So since the upgrade to 2014 I've had an issue with 2 http checks.

Basically I have 2 services I'm doing a check_http on

$USER1$/check_http -t 60 -H $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$
$ARG1$ -s "UA-1457754-9" -f ok -I 10.1.2.210 -u "/" -p 80
and
-s "UA-1457754-9" -f ok -I 10.1.2.224 -u "/" -p 80

this check results in this: The issue is we just switched these over to https only, but for some reason before the update it was still working.

Now, I can add the -S option, but it still does not work because I'm checking local IP addresses for the services and not the external domain name.

this results in:
Is there any way I can get this to work using local IP addresses and not the FQDN on the SSL cert?

Thanks.

Probably the easiest route, is to have proper internal dns so that you can use the fqdn within nagios and have the cert verify. A slightly more hackish solution would be to add the entries you need into /etc/hosts with the full fqdn.

the thing is the server itself doesn't serve up the cert, our netscaler does... The servers have certs but they're old/expired. I'm at this point:
Is there a way to just tell it to not care if the cert is expired?

As you can see I tried the -C 0 and that didn't seem to workout.

You should remove the -C -S all together, change the -f to follow, run per the help

-C, --certificate=INTEGER[,INTEGER]
Minimum number of days a certificate has to be valid. Port defaults to 443
(when this option is used the URL is not checked.)

That worked. Thanks!
