  • What type of monitor is it(http, https, tcp and so on) What are the send and receive strings in the monitor?

     

  • I used monitor type http. I used weblogin and restart all services, nut some still offline. pls guide me to solve.

     

     

  • What happens if you telnet to port 80 and type

     

    GET /TTSP/

     

    followed by 6 returns(there is no reason to have 6 of these btw)? Do you get 400 back? Usually without specifying the HTTP version, you will only get content back and not an HTTP status code. Try this instead:

     

    GET /TTSP/ HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n

    or

     

    GET /TTSP/ HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: \r\nConnection: Close\r\n\r\n

      after Host:, put in your host name, that somehow got omitted in my response
  • When i telnet IP:port. ex: 1.1.1.2 port 8089. I typed GET /TTSP, and immediately telnet closed - not connected.

     

     

  • Then your webserver doesn't like how you have the request formatted, it probably requires a more complete HTTP request. Try one of the above 2 versions I recommended.

     

  • hi, i have a few queries on this. 1) TTSP is a folder or file ? If it is a folder then what should be the file name ? 2) If TTSP is a file then u need to remove / after it. And Does it have a string called login.jsp ? 3) Did u configured your server as 1.1.1.2:8089 in pool ? 4) did u take a packet capture and see what's going on ?
