Hey,
I'm having an issue with form based content checks using post. It took me a while to realize that my url test was actually working. However, the information I'm trying to trigger on is actually in the headers (as "Exception") and not the body. Any way to get Xymon to parse headers as well? For the curious, I'm using the RESTClient extension to FF to test the results.
thanks

No, Xymon only looks the header "Content-type" for the "type" test. All other web tests are against the body. This would be a neat feature.

It can be done in an external script with curl, using the --head option to get just the headers.

I know. Was hoping it could be done natively. On Dec 9, 2013 9:12 PM, "Ralph Mitchell" <ralphmitchell at gmail.com> wrote:
