After a long investigation I figured out there is something wrong with check command, Everything is white on text except check_command is Yellow any Idea what I am doing wrong here?

Hi @Zark


It looks like you have a syntax error in the check command. Try this:

check_http -w 5 -c 10 -I 1.1.1.20 -p 8080 -u /Web/Login.do?formAction=startLogin&groupId=181

I would recommend going to /usr/local/nagios/libexec and testing from the command line. Let me know if that works.
