Hi,
the start program currently requires that the program will run on the
background (daemonize). You program doesn't detach and keeps monit as parent.
The following should fix it:
check process test with pidfile /Users/marmel01/Documents/foo.pid
start program = "/bin/bash -c '/Users/marmel01/Documents/monittest.sh &'"
stop program = "/bin/kill $(/bin/cat /Users/marmel01/Documents/foo.pid)”
Regards,
Martin
