Special check_http variation

[VanZee, Timothy]

Remove the leading / from the path.  "./check_http -H 195.30.64.242 -u
cgi-bin/image" returned HTTP WARNING: HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found for me.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Special check_http variation

Hi List,

we have some special software running which gives some jpeg and
motion-jpeg output of some videostream. Unfortunately this software
is not very stable, so I wanted to monitor it with check_http.

The image can be downloaded via http://195.30.64.242/cgi-bin/image.
The motion jpeg stream can be get as an octet-stream via
http://195.30.64.242/cgi-bin/video.

The command "./check_http -I 195.30.64.242" brings the correct 404 page,
because there is no directory index.
The command "./check_http -I 195.30.64.242 -u /cgi-bin/image" brings a
timeout after 10 seconds, although I can telnet to that address and can
download the image via "GET /cgi-bin/image".

Can anybody give us some hint?!?
Would be great and feel free to try the URL...

Thanks,

Matthias Eichler
