The page is set to expire immediately and usually the cache problems are the
browser/client. At least in my experience.
On hobbit-clients.cfg for the host (it has proc tests already) I added:
FILE /var/www/foo/bar/output.png red mtime<1800 #go red if file older than
30 minutes
How do I get the client to send the details about this file? From reading
the man page I need to specify client-local.cfg but I am not sure what goes
in this. I'm pretty sure I want:
file:/var/www/foo/bar/output.png
Do I put this under [linux]? If I do this, will it only have the clients
with an appropriate FILE check or ask this file of every linux box?

couple random thoughts:
Would HTTP cache control headers help in this regard? You can poll a page
via wget or some other mechanism and look at the page headers, that won't
tell you if the image is old but if the page is regenerated on each image
update it may work... If you have shell access to the server:/image.file you
could test the mac times... Or, toss in some logic to catch the bugz :)

Subject: [Xymon] Looking for "page too old" script
I have a tsch script that does some things, manipulates and image and such
and posts it on a web site. Occasionally, I have found a bug or two where
the image stops updating. I don't know this until it is too late. Is there
any sort of technique or custom script that will poll a website and see if
something is to old? I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to correctly indicate
a problem and hoping there is something I can start from already.
Thanks in advance!
