I have a host where I am doing two http tests against. One of the URLs
has shown a tendency to false alarm (go red and then a minute later
back green), twice a night.<br>
<br>
In an attempt to reduce these false alarms, I used the "badhttp" tag as
so:<br>
---snippet from bb-hosts---<br>
1.2.3.4 URL-Site_Portal #
cont;<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://mysite.com/public/index.html;Found">http://mysite.com/public/index.html;Found</a>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.mysite.com/private/index.html">http://www.mysite.com/private/index.html</a> badhttp-*-0000-1800:1:2:4<br>
---<br>
<br>
<br>
The second URL is the one that blips, and adding the badhttp tag has
not helped, it still alerts after a single failure, and history shows
no status changes to clear or yellow.<br>
<br>
Here is a cut and paste of the status when it alerted red (The second
check was listed below this one, and was green - also interestingly,
the second check shown on the status page is the first URL from the
bb-hosts line):<br>
<h3>Wed Oct 11 07:05:56 2006: Server timeout ; OK</h3>
<pre> <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.mysite.com/private/index.html">http://www.mysite.com/private/index.html</a> - Server timeout
Seconds: 10.31
</pre>
<br>
Is there any way that I can troubleshoot this? Could it be caused from
doing two http tests against the same site (maybe badhttp only takes
effect for the first one)?<br>
