Monitoring https pages

[Nikesh Maharaj]

Noted thank you for your response. Will try the / at the end of the url and check if it actually returns anything.
Im not getting any errors or am I looking at the wrong log file?

I've always found that using a slash at the end of a URL that contains
subdirectories works best.  I also use the 'cont' and 'httpstatus' tests
depending on what the site returns.

Are you getting an error of some kind on your test?  The URL you have is
not typically a name that https would respond successfully, unless your
server has some self signed stuff going on.  Also, adding port 9191
means that https would have to resolve on that specific port in your
printspooler server webserver settings.  It all gets very complicated.
