check_jk_status

Dirk Weinhardt submitted a patch to that allows jk-status with just one balancer to be parsed.

First off, thank you for contributing. But here is some constructive criticism.

- Learn how to compress a file, why would you compress it twice?

- Inefficient Perl programming, the plugin uses a wget to grab the xml from jkstatus/?mime=xml ... Why not just use XML::Simple and slurp it directly into a hashref? my $xml = XMLin($url). Since your already using LWP. Just look at some of the apache status plugins for an example.

I am re-writing and will be uploading the updated plugin.

I solved the probrem as follows.

1. Download check_jk_status-0.1.gz
2. gzip -d check_jk_status-0.1.gz
3. mv check_jk_status-0.1 check_jk_status-0.1.gz
4. gzip -d check_jk_status-0.1.gz

Hi.. How would I go about extracting the inner file? I untar'ed the downloaded .gz, but the contents of that file appeared to be repacked into another archive...


Many Thanks In Advance...
