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"?
