Hi Martin,

  I did try this but it did not load the environment variables. Let me try it 
again though, if I did anything wrong back then.

Hi,

you can wrap the script in shell like this:

start program = "/bin/bash -c '/etc/init.d/myprogram start'"

The shell will load its profile (set environment variables).

Martin

Hi,

I have a node.js services that I want to be monitored by monit. I have written 
a bash script to start and stop these services. The script works fine when run 
from my bash console. But, it fails when run through monit, as explained on FAQ 
page that monit uses execv and thus environment variables are not available.


One of the workarounds that people have been using is:

/usr/bin/env KEY=value myscript.sh

Unfortunately, I can't use that since I have a lot of variables, some of which 
are quite long and thus exceed the 127 character limit.


Is there any other way I can have my environment variable available to the 
start program script?
