Hi,
you can try to run monit in verbose mode using the -v option ... it
should provide more info.
However, to perform process restart, monit requires the start and *stop*
programs to be defined, thus you need to add some stop method, otherwise
foo restart will fail, for example:
--8<--
check process foo with pidfile /var/run/foo.pid
start program = "/usr/bin/foo"
stop program = "/usr/bin/pkill foo"
--8<--
(the manual start action doesn't require the stop program, thus it works)

Hi!
I'm running Monit 4.5 on Debian 3.2 (sarge/stable). It's configured
properly to monitor lighttpd HTTP server. Now I want to add another
simple executable to monitor: /usr/bin/foo
I run the following:
> monit -d 5
> killall foo
After 5 seconds, monit notices that foo is not running. The syslog
contains the following:
Jan 14 16:16:45 xxx monit[19441]: 'foo' process is not running
After that monit does nothing. It does not start the process
automatically. I have to manually call "monit start foo" which works.
My configuration file looks as follows:
check process foo with pidfile /var/run/foo.pid
start program = "/usr/bin/foo"
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance,
Michel
