Monit and https... Second try

[Yahoo - Tjstroker]

Can someone tell me what I am missing here... simple I'm sure

I have monit 5.2.1 and have the following item failing on one server while working on another. The difference is the that is the PASSING example I am requesting a page. Is that required for SSL?

  check process obsr with pidfile /var/run/obsr.pid

        start program = "/etc/init.d/obsr start"

        stop program = "/etc/init.d/obsr stop"

        if failed host localhost port 80 protocol http with timeout 15 seconds then restart

        if failed host localhost port 443 type TCPSSL proto http with timeout 15 seconds then alert     ##this one fails

        if 3 restarts within 3 cycles then timeout

However this one passes:

check host https with address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

  if failed port 443 type TCPSSL proto http 

  and request '/Admin' 

     with timeout 20 seconds for 2 cycles 

  then alert

Remote Host 'https'

  monitoring status                 monitored
