check works until it is scheduled and then it fails

[Bionic___]

I am using the plugin nagios-check-website and it works EXCEPT when it is on the schedule checks.
It works from the CLI:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_website -w 1500 -c 4000 -t 6000 -s -u /_layouts/15/Sp.Login.Custom/Login.aspx\?ReturnUrl=%2f_layouts%2f15%2fAuthenticate.aspx%3fSource%3d%252F portal.dir.texas.gov
HTTPS OK: 98ms - https://portal.dir.texas.gov/_layouts/15/Sp.Login.Custom/Login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f_layouts%2f15%2fAuthenticate.aspx%3fSource%3d%252F|time=98ms;1500;4000;0;

See, it works.

I have created a command in XI called check_website:

Code: Select all

$USER1$/check_website -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ -t $ARG3$ $ARG4$ -u $ARG5$ $ARG6$ 

When I create a service in XI that works every time using the test button in the service:

Code: Select all

COMMAND: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_website -w 1500 -c 4000 -t 6000  -p 443 -s -u /_layouts/15/Sp.Login.Custom/Login.aspx\?ReturnUrl=%2f_layouts%2f15%2fAuthenticate.aspx%3fSource%3d%252F portal.dir.texas.gov 
OUTPUT: HTTPS OK: 104ms - https://portal.dir.texas.gov:443/_layouts/15/Sp.Login.Custom/Login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f_layouts%2f15%2fAuthenticate.aspx%3fSource%3d%252F|time=104ms;1500;4000;0;

It still works.

When I assign it to a host and put on a scheduled check I always get this error:

Code: Select all

(Return code of 127 is out of bounds - plugin may be missing)

Since there is no call using $HOSTADDRESS$, it seems that associating it with a host address should not make a difference.

I have checked for solutions and followed all the suggestions.
I checked that the plugin exists in the plugin directory.
I checked that Nagios has permissions to the plugin.
I checked that Nagios could execute wget (used in the plugin).

I do not know what else to check.

Can you show us the actual host config? Does it help if you wrap the URL in double quotes?

[Bionic___]

Here it is.
Quotes cause it to fail always.

I don't see a "check_command" directive defined explicitly in the host config, so it's inheriting it from the template.

Code: Select all

use                             xiwizard_website_host

Can you show us the template's config too? The "default" template on my test box looks like this:

Code: Select all

define host {
       name                          		xiwizard_website_host
       check_command                 		check_xi_host_http
       use                           		xiwizard_generic_host
       register                    		0

}

Did you modify yours to use the "check_website" command?

[Bionic___]

The template looks the same as yours"

Code: Select all

define host {
       name                                     xiwizard_website_host
       check_command                            check_xi_host_http
       use                                      xiwizard_generic_host
       register                                 0

}

I tried it with the check_host-alive_http too and it made no difference.

[lmiltchev]

I am sorry - I should have asked you about the service definition. My bad. Can you show us the service definition as well plus of the the templates the service is using?

[Bionic___]

I think this is what you asked for

Can you upload this template as well? xiwizard_website_dnsip_service

Can you PM one of us your profile? Admin -> System Profile -> Download Profile, we should be able to find the template in there.

Also, what are the permissions on the file?

Code: Select all

ls -l /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_website
