<p class=MsoNormal>When apache is off, I get a “Connection refused”
in the status information, but the nagios status for the defined service is “OK”</p>

<p class=MsoNormal>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”</p>
<p class=MsoNormal> </p>
<p class=MsoNormal>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. </p>
