Need help with check_http

[Rob Hamilton]

The check_http plugin doesn't seem to be catching critical events and
connection refused events:

 

Localhost.cfg

 

define service{

        use                             local-service         ; Name of
service template to use

        host_name                       app3, app4, app5, app6, app7,
app8, app9, app10,

        service_description             CC_PIXEL

        check_command                   check_pixel

        }

 

Commands.cfg

 

# 'check_pixel' command definition

define command{

        command_name    check_pixel

        command_line    $USER1$/check_http -e OK -H <virtual hostname>
-I $HOSTADDRESS$ -u <test url>        }

 

When apache is off, I get a "Connection refused"  in the status
information, but the nagios status for the defined service is "OK"

 

When apache is up and the app server is down, I get "HTTP CRITICAL -
Invalid HTTP response received from host " in the status information,
but the nagios status for the defined service is "OK"

 

When I run check_http from the command line manually, I can confirm that
I'm receiving correct status information back and the expect string of
"OK" isn't in the response. 

 

What am I missing? 

 

Thanks,

 

-Rob
