I had this same issue (trying to check sites with SSL through a proxy). Unfortunately, it appears that the issue is that check_http does not support the 'CONNECT' tunneling protocol that our proxy servers require for that service.
I'm not really sure what other options exist to do this. Like, for instance if WWW::Mechanize would allow it either. I wish check_http did, though.

I googled it and found that, with version 1.4.8, it might be possible to try this ( http://www.mail-archive.com/nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg11186.html ) : check_http -H my.proxy -p my_proxy_port -u http://my.website Unfortunately, I have to access my application through HTTPS. So I tried with check_http -H my.proxy -p my_proxy_port -u https://my.website -vvv And I obtained this message : > GET https://my.website HTTP/1.0 > User-Agent: check_http/v2053 (nagios-plugins 1.4.13) > Connection: close > Host: my.proxy:my_proxy_port > > > http://my.proxy:my_proxy_porthttps://my.website > STATUS: HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request > [....] Does soemone know how I should deal with this ?
