    Website Monitoring Script

    Hi

    does anybody know a good website monitoring script with history, how long the site was down, % rage, ...

    Not too complex, should have only the interesting datas, not more.

    I want to host it myself.

    Suggestions for programs?

    I have used Zabbix quite a bit and it can be configured to do this kind of monitoring. There are web monitoring services such as pingdom as well which you can use, but no where near as robust.

        I use Pingdom, they monitor your site, send you e-mails/texts whenever your site goes down, reports back to you daily about your downtimes, there's a free and premium version. You should really check it out, a great tool

                Thanks for the info. But i would also like to have the uptime percentage from my site and my providers... so that i can see how good they are... ;-)

                But so the script seems goods...

                  Been using http://www.uptimerobot.com/ for a while now.
                  It will tell you how long your sites have been down, the percentage up time and you can get instant Email alerts when one of your URL is down, The Free version allows up to 50 URL's.

                  Super easy to use, hope that Helps

                    Nice, but isnt 288 times a day not a bit overkill ?
                    Will those checks visible for any stats program ?
                    If yes, it will screw some data imo.

                            make sure , to host this script on mission critical server/cloud and not on your production server.

                            so if the production server goes down, monitoring script wont go down with it..

                              Munin is great. The http_loadtime plugin will monitor this for you and alert you when the site is loading slowly. Everything in munin is really easy to configure and will email you when "warning" or "critical" limits have been reached, from disk I/O, space, mysql, apache, anything.
                              Very simple to setup

                              For coding work - hit me up on andy // borkedcoder // com
                              (consider figuring out the email as test #1)

                                i use uptimerobot.com too, and works fine for me. Very helpful, because i realized too late when site was down, before using the script.

                                  Is google analytics not enough? Gets you an email when site could not be found....okay, it's just only when robot comes along....but comes often to my sites.

                                    Pingdom is also great!
