trouble getting started: getting error 127 out of bounds on check_http

This shows that your Nagios installation is trying to call '/check_http',
which does not exist.  A non-existant or non-executable plugin will always
give you a code of 127 (which is an exec failure).  Nagios is telling you
that the plugin does not exist where defined.

Looking at your definition of check_http, it would seem that you have maybe
forgotten to set $USER1$ ?  You have said $USER1$/check_http, but the error
emssage is for /check_http. Check your definitions, and run the config check
on your entire setup.

Some people get more polite responses from the mailing list than others due
to the way they asked, and the information they give :)
