I have a set of name based virtual hosts that I am testing.  the hosts.cfg

WWW.XXX.YYY.ZZZ  site2.com    # noconn http://site2.com/sitemap.xml

all of the sites but the first work.  I've tried, just for fun,
re-arranging the order of the sites... No change.

I notice the XYMONNETSVCS set is : smtp telnet ftp pop pop3 pop-3 ssh imap
ssh1 ssh2 imap2 imap3 imap4 pop2 pop-2 nntp ftps telnets smtps submission
msa pop3s imaps nntps ldap
ldaps rsync bbd clamd spamd svn oratns qmtp qmqp amqp amqps vnc cupsd
ajp13 rdp netbios-ssn snpp ircd lpd

There doesn't seem to be any http test defined.

The apache logs for the failing site show no access to sitemap.xml

Anyone have any thoughts?

Hi,

'http' as a test shouldn't need to be listed in XYMONNETSVCS explicitly
since it's handled by its own conversation mechanism, and a problem there
would end up affecting all 'http' tests, not just that one.

If it's following the hosts.cfg entry around, it's probably xymonnet
really seeing it as in bad state.

- What's the error message given in the http test for the one that's failing?

- Can you get to the site using wget from your monitor server? Ruled out
network/DNS?

- Are you using SNI on this server, or is there anything distinct about
that one vhost? Try toggling --sni/--no-sni

- Try running xymonnet in debug mode (just that one host) and see what it
gives you:

xymoncmd xymonnet --debug  --ping --checkresponse --test-untagged site.org


HTH,

Thanks for the tip!  I was trying to run the debug mode and failing
miserably.

what I found was that I had an earlier entry for site1.org... without
the http test.  That entry took precedence over the "Web Sites" entry...
Oddly, there are actually other tests specified under web sites and they
executed.  It's like that entry was partially de-duplicated and http
skipped.
