check_http problem

[Henrik W. Hansen]

Hi all
I am not able to get check_http to work with any parameters from the 
services.cfg file! If i want to check different urls, I have to hard 
code different check commmands in checkcommands.cfg. Why is that?
My checkcommand.cfg looks like
# 'check_http_url' command definition THAT DOES NOT WORK
define command{
        command_name    check_http_url
        command_line    $USER1$/check_http -H  $ARG1$ -u $ARG2$ -s $ARG3$
}
# 'check_http' command definition #THAT WORKS!!!!
define command{
        command_name    check_http
        command_line    $USER1$/check_http -H localhost -u /index.jsp -s 
Hello
        }

and from the service.cfg looks like
# Service definition
define service{
        use                             generic-service         ; Name 
of servi\
ce template to use

        host_name                       gandalf
        service_description             Portal
        is_volatile                     0
        check_period                    24x7
        max_check_attempts              3
        normal_check_interval           2
        retry_check_interval            1
        contact_groups                  linux-admins
        notification_interval           240
        notification_period             24x7
        notification_options            w,u,c,r
        check_command                   
check_http_url!localhost!/index.jsp!Hello
        }

The command works fine from the command line:
./check_http -H localhost -u /index.jsp -s Hello

Why is that??

Please advice.
/Henrik
