Monitoring HTTPS sites

Yeah, take a quick through the logs on your machine that runs the
network tests. It's likely that you'll find something in one of them
(I'd think the network log, but I've been suprised before).

Sorry.  What I mean is the status turns "red" and says "Server
timeout." I am not sure is there are any logs which will help me
determine what I am missing.

I am runnng Ubuntu 11.04. I ran: sudo apt-get install
libssl-dev I also reran configure using the following
command: sudo ./configure.server --pcreinclude /usr/inlcude
--pcrelib /usr/lib --sslinclude /usr/include --ssllib
/usr/include

It found the SSL libraries and asked if I want to enable SSL
and I said yes.  I then ran Make and Make Install
successfully. I then restarted Apache and Xymon but it still
fails when I ask it to monitor a website using https.

Jewel,

What version of linux are you running?  The openssl-devel
package mentioned by Paul contains the files that are often
missing when people run into this sort of issue. The same
thing happens when people don't install the various 'devel'
packages.

Never leave the mailing list. Always reply all.

Yes, that is different.  We're talking Linux here. You
don't specify, so we on the list are forced to guess.

The openssl Linux package is just the executable. You need
header files, etc. to be able to compile things to use it.

I do have OpenSSL version 1.0.1 installed. Is this
different?

I am running version 4.3.5 When I run xymonnet --version
I don't get any SSL libraries - just my version. I would
like to be able to monitor some https sites but when I
add the urls to the hosts.cfg file it fails.  I am
running the web console for my Xymon server over https.
I am a newbie to linux so responses could be dummied down
it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance, -- Jewel
