[Nagios-users] check_http problems

2006-02-15 Thread Julie S. Lin

Hi

i wish to enable check_http monitoring for my webmail server under 
nagios 1.2 but

i get the following failure ..
[1140027855] SERVICE ALERT: 
mail.myvest.com;HTTP;CRITICAL;SOFT;2;Connection refused by host
[1140027915] SERVICE ALERT: 
mail.myvest.com;HTTP;CRITICAL;HARD;3;Connection refused by host



here is my services.cfg entry
define service{
  use generic-service
  host_name   ns1, mail.myvest.com
  service_description HTTP
  is_volatile 0
  check_period24x7
  max_check_attempts  3
  normal_check_interval   3
  retry_check_interval1
  contact_groups  admin
  notification_interval   120
  notification_period 24x7
  notification_optionsw,u,c,r
  check_command   check_http
  }

here is my checkcommands.cfg entry (pretty default)
# 'check_http' command definition
define command{
  command_namecheck_http
  command_line$USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$
  }


HOWEVER, here's the kicker, and why I'm asking for a little nudge in the
right direction ..when I manually run the check it works! Any advice 
would be

greatly appreciated.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] plugins]# ./check_http -H mail.myvest.com
HTTP ok: HTTP/1.1 200 OK -   0.003 second response time |time=  0.003

i can do it as any user and it works. and the ns1 http check is working 
fine.

Check your host config for mail.myvest.com.  Also when you do 
check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$
it's expecting the IP Address of the host that you gave in the host
config.
