TLDR: Describe your issue in a one liner here

Is this urgent: No
DNS provider(s) you use: N/A
Program version:

Running version latest built on 2024-05-06T11:16:06.246Z (commit 542e895)
What are you using to run the container: docker-compose
Extra information (optional)

Self-hosted instances of healthchecks.io may have a ping url of the form ${BASE_URL}/ping/${UUID} which doesn't work with the implementation in 937a249ffa. I'm working on a PR to add this functionality.

I had the same problem, I simply added the path /ping in HEALTH_HEALTHCHECKSIO_BASE_URL. Maybe documenting this is enough, and with this it is not necessary to add a new environment variable.

Oh that's much simpler, I didn't think to try that 😅

Appending /ping to HEALTH_HEALTHCHECKSIO_BASE_URL worked for me, too. Going to close this and my PR 🙂
