Check_jmx plugin problem

[Paul WILLIS PSE 55499]

I've had similar problems with nrpe where the command string doesn't get
passed intact but instead some non letter characters get "processed" somewhere
within nrpe, so running it directly and through nrpe give different results.
Try putting a \ in front of every unusual character

could you please post your nrpe.cfg (sanitize as needed) to make sure
there is not a typo in it? (I've had that many times myself, very
frustrating).

Another option worth exploring is
http://search.cpan.org/~roland/jmx4perl-0.65/scripts/check_jmx4perl.

Another thing: I am not sure how nrpe escapes the slashes (if at all)
in the uri in that check. Try adding more on slash in front of every
other slash. Just a wild shot, I know.
