Since bash couldnt find monit I did wget monit-4.9 compiled it and copied monit to /usr/local/bin/monit/ So that fixed that problem and now I have monit running. BUT Monit doesnt start/stop/restart correctly (although I see OK when I try) when doing /etc/init.d/ It just starts by: monit -v And it shows that monit doesnt have a PID file at /var/run/monit.pid Any ideas to this whole mess I created? -- Alfredo Deza
