Error using check_http with proxy

[PAPPAS Stefanos]

Hello,

may I ask you for your support when using the plugin check_http?
We are using this plugin in script for a opsview-check and was working fine over many years for specific http-calls.
Recently there was a change in our infrastructure and we have to go via a proxy and a proxy-user to made the http-calls.

Unfortunately we get an error when using the proxy:

The invocation is:

./check_http -I "OUR-PROXY" -p PROXY-PORT -b 'PORXY_USER;PASSWORD' -H HOST -S -j CONNECT -u URL -vvv

and get:

Entering CONNECT tunnel mode with proxy OUR-PROXY:PROXY-PORT to dst HOST:443
CONNECT HOST:443 HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: check_http/v2.1.1 (monitoring-plugins 2.1.1)
Proxy-Connection: keep-alive
Host: HOST

Receive response from proxy
HTTP/1.1 407 authenticationrequired

Can you please give us a hint what is wrong with this invocation. Why is the authentication with -b ignored?

The same call with curl does work:

curl -x "http://OUR-PROXY: PROXY-PORT" --proxy-user 'PORXY_USER;PASSWORD' https://HOST/URL
