I'm trying to add an http check to one of my hosts. It appears as though
it is doing the check and correctly finding a problem, yet I am not
getting any email notification. Below are the nagios config files:
/etc/nagios/hosts.cfg and services.cfg.

define host{
host_name login2.mycompany.com
use generic-host
alias login2.mycompany.com
address login2.mycompany.com
_HOST_ID 2923
hostgroups corporate
check_command check_host_alive
check_interval 5
retry_interval 5
check_period 24x7
contact_groups Notify_james
notification_interval 10
first_notification_delay 1
notification_period 24x7
notification_options d
notifications_enabled 1
}



define service{
host_name login2.mycompany.com
service_description check_http
_SERVICE_ID 1879
use CheckHTTP
check_command check_http
max_check_attempts 5
normal_check_interval 5
retry_check_interval 1
active_checks_enabled 1
check_period 24x7
notification_interval 5
first_notification_delay 1
notification_period 24x7
notification_options w,u,c,r
notifications_enabled 1
contact_groups Notify_james
contacts james
}


The contact_groups and contacts are definitely right as I get host down
notifications from other hosts.

My service template for CheckHTTP looks like:

define service{
name CheckHTTP
service_description CheckHTTP
use generic-service
is_volatile 0
check_command check_http
max_check_attempts 3
normal_check_interval 5
retry_check_interval 1
active_checks_enabled 1
passive_checks_enabled 0
check_period 24x7
notification_period 24x7
notification_interval 5
notification_options w,u,c,r
notifications_enabled 1
first_notification_delay 1
contact_groups Supervisors
register 0
}

Is there a way to make the check failure for CheckHTTP be a critical
rather than a warning?

Right now the warning shows:
login2.mycompany.com check_http Warning login2.mycompany.com 22h 10m 51s
2012/10/11 8:18 HTTP WARNING: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found - 1428 bytes in
0.020 second response time

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
James
