check_http times out eventhough website is accessible

[Marc Powell]

It seems that it might be taking longer than 10 seconds for the plugin to make the request and receive the response. Is that what you are seeung during those times? You might consider extending you plugin timeout value.

Subject: [Nagios-users] check_http times out eventhough website is accessible

Hi everyone!

I'm having a strange problem with my nagios setup. I'm running nagios 
1.0 on top of FreeBSD 4.7.

Earlier this week I recieved alerts regarding two websites that I'm 
monitoring, strange thing was that I could reach them from the 
survelliance server by using telnet (against port 80) and lynx.

check_http returned with "Socket timeout after 10 seconds" and State: 
Critical

This has happened three times, all during tuesday and wednesday this 
week. I'd be very happy to hear about any ideas regarding this problem.

Thanks in advance.
