Hi,
according to log message the apache process itself is not running - in this
case the port test is skipped and monit tries to restart the service, which can
be seen in the log too. The config looks OK, it seems that the start attempt
failed.
Can you verify whether the apache service can be stopped/started via monit?:
monit stop apache
monit start apache
There could be some environment variable required by the start script, whereas
monit purges the environment on exec for security reasons (more details:
http://mmonit.com/wiki/Monit/FAQ#execution).
Regards,
Martin
