Struggling with check_mk error Cannot fetch deployment URL via curl error? Our Server Management Support team is available to help you with your questions and concerns.

check_mk Cannot fetch deployment URL via curl error – Fixed

Check_mk can be described as an open-source IT monitoring software. It uses Nagios as its monitoring engine. Furthermore, it enables us to monitor our IT infrastructure like servers, switches, routers, and applications.

One of the key features of check_ is deploying changes automatically to multiple hosts via the “distributed monitoring” feature.

However, sometimes, users run into the “Cannot fetch deployment URL via curl” error when they try to make changes with check_mk.

This indicates that the check_mk agent on the target host is not able to connect to the check_mk server in order to access the deployment configuration.

Fortunately, our experts have come up with an easy solution to resolve this error.

It involves checking the /etc/resolv.conf to ensure that we have the right DNS server entry for our environment. If the error still occurs, our experts recommend adding an entry in /etc/hosts.

Alternatively, here are a few more troubleshooting tips to fix this error:

• Verify check_mk agent is running on the target host.
• Ensure check_mk server is running and accessible.
• Make sure the target host is able to connect to the check_mk server.
• We can try increasing the timeout value of the deployment URL fetch in the check_mk agent configuration file.

Let us know in the comments if these troubleshooting tips helped resolve the check_mk error.
