how to check wheather application is up & running in the server?

I want to check whether application up & running or down , because of some error in the application. I can able to monitor server using process ID , but there is possible application down but server up & running.

I want to monitor the application URL , like http://10.1.1.1:8080/test. i can't ping the url , because its not an DNS server.

So how to monitor the application url whether is working good or some error occur. Please advise...

I'd do this with wget. You need to configure it with number of attempts to try, and I'd recommend a low-ish timeout value too, whatever you think an acceptable response is. It will return 0 if it could download the page and non-zero otherwise.

#!/bin/sh

if wget "$1" -O /dev/null --tries 1 --quiet --timeout 5; then echo "Up"; else echo "Down"; fi

Example

check-site.sh "http://10.1.1.1:8080/test"
