To create an HTTP 1.0 compliant request using the send string, you should use \r\n's to terminate lines and two \r\n's to terminate the GET request:

 

 

GET /alive.html\r\n\r\n

 

 

The application you're monitoring was probably responding with a 400 error with the single \n terminator you were using:

 

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes

 

400 Bad Request

 

The request cannot be fulfilled due to bad syntax.[2]
