Hi Mark,
I'll have to look at the Daemondo code again. I'm not sure whether it
will get a child death notice for a script that it didn't start
directly, and this may be the problem in the case that you describe.
Looking...

pidfile configured properly and daemondo kept starting more
instances of
the daemon, which was a good sign to me that it was looking for the
pidfile, using it, and might in fact restart a process that died.
But after fixing the startupitem.pidfile properly, if I kill the
script
(to simulate the script dying abnormally) daemondo never restarts
it. Or
is kiling it using the Unix kill command a valid test? Is there a
bug in
daemondo? It isn't behaving as the main.c comments (or our
documentation)
say it should. I have never explicitly tested it before, and I'm
not sure
anyone else has either so it seems like a bug.
