I am getting syntax errors when I try to check the exit status of a bash script using monit's "check program". If I run the bash script manually, it doesn't error. But if I do monit reload with my monit check program in the config, monit gives me errors. Here's my current monit .conf file -- check program myscript with path "/etc/monit.d/script_to_run.sh" if status != 0 then alert If I change it to this to make sure monit uses bash to parse the file... check program myscript with path "/usr/bash /etc/monit.d/script_to_run.sh" if status != 0 then alert Then I get this error Warning: Program does not exist: '"/bin/bash /etc/monit.d/script_to_run.sh"'
Even if I have basic test script stuff in script_to_run.sh I still get errors: #!/bin/bash exit 0 Monit will complain -- Error: syntax error 'exit' If I have this in script_to_run.sh: #!/bin/bash echo "hello" Monit will complain -- Error: syntax error 'echo' For reference -- I have monit 5.4, have followed the "check program" example in the man monit doc, and am able to configure/use monit "check process..." just fine on the same server. And yeah, bash scripts run fine if not through monit... Thoughts?
