There must be something in the '/usr/local/bin/mongrel_rails' script
that expect /usr/local/bin/ to be in the PATH, which it isn't when
monit execute. Looks like mongrel_rails calls itself without any path
prefix.
This is easy to test, just export this path to the shell, which is
the PATH monit sets "export PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin" and
see if /usr/local/bin/mongrel_rails now works, it should not. You
need to remove the link "/usr/local/bin/mongrel_rails -> /usr/bin/
mongrel_rails" if you actually want to do the test.
To solve this, the trick is either to set the link as you did or
better, add extra PATH info to the mongrel_rails script. Assuming its
a ruby script put something like this at or near the top of the script.
ENV['PATH'] = "#{ENV['PATH']}:/usr/local/bin";
Best regards

I completely understand up setting env variables, but it makes no
sence to me when you explicitly set the path.

Ditto. /usr/local/bin is not on PATH in RHEL 4.
Michael: have you heard of / tried the RubyWorks package (link in the
sig)? It's just what the doctor prescribes for RHEL 4, even if I say
so myself.
