Hi All,
I am looking for a script to check if Apache is up
and running, if not the script should send an
email automatically. The script has to be run from
a different machine (not from the machine that
runs apache). So it has to query for a http
address and if it receives any other reply that
200 OK, it should send the email. Can you guys
suggest on how to go about ? Should I use curl ?
or wget ? or ping ? I can handle the email part
and cron part. If you guys have a similar script
please share it if possible.
