Ah indeed, I did not notice the method was HEAD. Obviously it will not get any contents, explaining the issue. However, Anze indicated that as soon as the patch was included, option "httpchk" stopped working. I suspect that the status code check is always enabled and does not match what is implicitly configured (eg: 0). I may be wrong, that's pure guess. Cheers, Willy
