The http test associated with the content check is working correctly, the
http headers are being returned. I can retrieve the page using wget from
the same server that I'm running the content test on. I've tried changing
the user-agent. I even set the user-agent to "Xymon" with wget and was able
to retrieve the page. Anybody have any idea what is going one here?

Can you show us the configuration in hosts.cfg?

Any log messages in xymonnet.log?

What do you get if you run:

xymoncmd sh -c 'grep thehostname $HOSTCFG | HOSTSCFG=/dev/stdin
$XYMONHOME/bin/xymonnet --no-update --debug --checkresponse'

This should give you (among other things) details of the HTTP/S
interactions, including "HTTP output" for each test.  Might give some clues.

Nothing too revealing. As I said I can retrieve the page using a browser

figure out why it won't return the page to Xymon.

The relevant line in hosts.cfg?

Unlike my own test, I see no Content-Length header, suggesting that maybe
Xymon is seding a "head" request rather than a "get".  Perhaps you don't
have "cont;" in front of the URL?  Or perhaps you have
"cont=othercolumn;http://..."; to change the column name from "content"?
