Re: [Nagios-users] a special http check
I'll second the WebInject vote. We use it heavily in my office to test our web applications. Here is a simple example I used to demonstrate logging into a drupal website and checking a specific page for content. http://www.techadre.com/content/checking-drupal-status-nagios-and-webinject -- Mat W. - http://www.techadre.com Date: Tue, 7 Jul 2009 11:34:27 -0400 From: k...@uvm.edu To: shadhi...@gmail.com CC: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] a special http check I've had good luck using WebInject for similar kinds of tests.

All,
I need to do a special kind of http check to see if our authentication
service is working or not. These are the sequence of event need to take
place.
I need to hit the url https://myserver.com/login
then I need do additional query service=myservice
then I need to additinal query to validattion url
https://myserver.com/validate
here I will add additional query with my username and password.
then I want to check the http response and search for the string yes
Can this be done using check_http or do I need a custom check? Please
advise on this. Thanks
I'm currently doing a login check using check_http, but it's a much
simpler, single-step check. It basically just checks that we can
successfully login with a special nagios username and password by
checking for the presence of the word Logout on the resulting page.
(That word only appears if the login is successful.)
define service {
service_description portal login
use our-service
servicegroups http-services
host_name our-host
check_command check_http!-S!-s Logout!-u
'/portal/j_spring_security_check?j_username=$USER3$j_password=$USER4$'
_ADDL_DETAILThis service verifies that we can log
in to the portal (via: if the login is successful then the string
Logout will be found on the page)
}
Perhaps you might be to accomplish what you want using only check_http
by breaking this up into several different service checks. i.e.: 1)
check that you can log in successfully, 2) check that you can (login
and) hit the service=myservice page, etc.
HTH,
