Issue

If the service.check configured to check https without tls_server_name:

      service {
        tags = ["wi-nginx","https"]
        name = "wi-nginx"
        port = "https"

        provider = "consul"
        check {
          name            = "wi-nginx_https_health"
          type            = "http"
          protocol        = "https"
          # tls_server_name = "${var.project_name}.example.com"
          method          = "GET"
          path            = "/_.gif"
          interval        = "10s"
          timeout         = "2s"

          check_restart {
            limit = 3
            grace = "90s"
            ignore_warnings = false
          }
        }
      }

and the certificate on the Nginx site does not support SAN wi-nginx.service.internal then there is no way to see why the check fails.

Reproduction steps

See the config above.

Expected Result

Nomad should log somewhere if the check fails.

Actual Result

I can not find any error messages regarding HTTPS check.

Also this is strange to see the raw IP address when tls_server_name was configured:

When this request actually fails:

$ wget https://172.31.2.172:443/_.gif
Connecting to 172.31.2.172:443 (172.31.2.172:443)
081B06BD517D0000:error:0A000086:SSL routines:tls_post_process_server_certificate:certificate verify failed:ssl/statem/statem_clnt.c:1889:
ssl_client: SSL_connect
wget: error getting response: Connection reset by peer

Proposition

Nomad should distinguish the error returned from the check and the failed check. In my case the check even did not run (server was not reached, though it function well). From the inside nginx container I ran:

$ wget https://localhost/_.gif
Connecting to localhost ([::1]:443)
08BBE122FC7B0000:error:0A000086:SSL routines:tls_post_process_server_certificate:certificate verify failed:ssl/statem/statem_clnt.c:1889:
ssl_client: SSL_connect

From here we can see that the request failed. Nginx does not have any errors in its /var/log/nginx/error.log file.
