curl error when running nrdp

[bosecorp]

I get this error when the job tries to run. I have this in a cron job every five minutes

this happens in AIX only

$ /opt/nagios/nrdp/clients/nrds/nrds.pl -H 'tledev.bose.com'
curl: option --insecure is unknown
curl: try 'curl --help' for more information

the error seems to be coming from script send_nrdp.sh

line 36

send_data() {
pdata="token=$token&cmd=submitcheck&XMLDATA=$1"
if [ ! "x$curl" == "x" ];then
rslt=`curl -f --silent --insecure -d "$pdata" "$url/"`
ret=$?
else
rslt=`wget -q -O - --post-data="$pdata" "$url/"`
ret=$?
fi

The AIX curl bin may not have an insecure switch. What is the output of:

Code: Select all

curl --help | grep insecure

[bosecorp]

if I remove the switch.

can still do https?

[abrist]

Only if your cert is not self-signed. . .

[bosecorp]

removed the insecure and this is the error I get now

Can this AIX server resolve the host?

Code: Select all

ping nagmonus1

[bosecorp]

keep in mind this device is behind the firewall and we only allow 443

I believe you need to specify your URL as: https://nagmonus1/nrdp/

[bosecorp]

I tried changing it in all the places I could find and still see in my firewall cul trying to use http instead of https

this is the error

gtsha2{root}:/opt/nagios/nrdp/clients/nrds} 04/01/15 13:46 :
# /opt/nagios/nrdp/clients/nrds/nrds.pl -H 'gtsha2.bose.com'
ERROR: could not connect to NRDP server at https://nagmonus1/nrdp/
curl exited with error 256

the problem is the curl for AIX does not support --insecure, what is the replacement for that in AIX

[tgriep]

Can you run the following and post the full output in case the command line is different in AIX?

Code: Select all

curl --help
