Title: apache_status: HTTPS support for Python 2.6, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 2.1.0i1
In some python versions (2.6, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4) the agent plugin
'apache_status'
crashed with the error message: "Exception (...: urlopen() got an unexpected keyword
argument 'context'".
This happens only if an HTTPS connection is established.
The reason for this is that in previous Python versions "urllib.urlopen" did not
support the 'context' parameter.
This werk introduces an alternative handling of "urllib.urlopen" for affected
python versions.
If you want to use this feature you have to redeploy this agent plugin.
