Still using 2.x here but, isn't there a commands.cfg file with some check_http definition? In doubt, take a working check_xyz and grep it in all the conf files and see if you missed any...
thanks - yes, I always "grep -ri" for commands.
That is what perplexes me - the file
# rpm -qf /etc/nagios/command-plugins.cfg nagios-plugins-1.4.13-1.el5.rf
contains both check_http and (few lines below) check_squid:
# grep check_http /etc/nagios/command-plugins.cfg command[check_http]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -I $HOSTADDRESS$ command[check_http2]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http -H $ARG1$ -I $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ command[check_squid]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p $ARG1$ -u $ARG2$ -e 'HTTP/1.0 200 OK'
And still I can use check_http, but can't use check_squid:
Error: Service check command 'check_squid' specified in service 'Proxy' for host 'ablprx01' not defined anywhere!
What I meant was that there should also be a definition in the commands.cfg file (if it is like 2.x)...
# grep check_http * command-plugins.cfg:command[check_http]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -I $HOSTADDRESS$ command-plugins.cfg:command[check_http2]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http -H $ARG1$ -I $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ command-plugins.cfg:# Using check_http will allow verification of authenticated proxies command-plugins.cfg:command[check_squid]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p $ARG1$ -u $ARG2$ -e 'HTTP/1.0 200 OK' commands.cfg:# 'check_http' command definition commands.cfg: command_name check_http commands.cfg: command_line $USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ commands.cfg: command_line $USER1$/check_http -H $ARG1$ -u $ARG2$
