Apache_status.py -> Exception ([::1]:80): <urlopen error [SSL: WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER] wrong version number (_ssl.c:1056)>

Hey guys

When I try to run the apache_status.py on my webserver, I got this error message:
Exception ([::1]:80): <urlopen error [SSL: WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER] wrong version number (_ssl.c:1056)>

Any ideas how to fix it?

Thanks and greets

apache_status tries to start an SSL connection to port 80.

Have you created a manual configuration for the agent plugin?

I think this is not an apache issue - maybe more a Python problem.

On another webserver it is running - with the same configuration (the webservers are behind a reverse proxy). So the internal communication is configured on port 80

It sound more like a wrong configured server.
As @r.sander already asked. Is there something configured in the “apache_status.cfg” inside “/etc/check_mk/”?
In the default configuration the script only uses port 443 for ssl connections nothing else.

5

No nothing configured. I have two servers, nearly same configuration. On both servers is just the apache plugin without any cfg file.

6

Then the difference in between these two must be the reason.

7

But which one? The apache has the same configuration, all Python modules are the same version.

8

is one system listening on IPv6 and the other not?

I think this is not an issue with IPv6 or Apache in general. On the same server I have an issue with another script as well:

root@server:/usr/lib/check_mk_agent/plugins/3600# ./mk_speedtest
Cannot retrieve speedtest configuration
