Hey guys,

I have monit set up on my freebsd webserver, and everything seems to be 
working, but there is a problem.  On the monit service manager page (and with 
"monit status" it shows "Connection Failed" as the status for my apache 
service.  When I run "monit validate" I get no errors.

Here is my monitrc related to that monitoring setup:

check process apache with pidfile /var/run/httpd.pid    start program = 
"/usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22 start"    stop program  = 
"/usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22 stop"    if cpu > 60% for 2 cycles then alert    
if cpu > 80% for 5 cycles then restart    if totalmem > 6144.0 MB for 5 cycles 
then restart    if children > 500 then restart    if loadavg(5min) greater than 
10 for 8 cycles then stop    if failed host www.tech-faq.com port 80 protocol 
http       request "/monit/token"       then restart#   monit will only 
monit/give alert in this mode.    mode passive    if 5 restarts within 5 cycles 
then timeout


I had to put monit into passive mode so it wont keep restarting apache.  The 
output from "monit status" is below:

Process 'apache'

The port response time tells me that it does receive the token which just 
contains the text "Monit is running.".  If I connect to the webserver and 
request this file, it confirms I can request it, and that I get the contents.

How do I get it to work properly?  Every configuration I have checked is 
similar to mine...most are even less detailed.
