Does the content of /var/run/stream.pid match the running process ID?
I'll ask the obvious - have you done a 'monit reload'? I've run into
circumstances when initiating monitoring of a new service where things
can get somewhat 'out of sync', and one or two 'monit reload's are
necessary to get it working properly.

I'm running centos 7 and I have a bash script that streams video, it's

script produces a pid file at /var/run/stream.pid but monit for some
reason can't see the pid file and it keeps stopping and then
restarting the stream.
In /etc/monitrc I have this:
check process stream with pidfile /var/run/stream.pid
start program = "/etc/init.d/stream start" with timeout 10 seconds
stop program = "/etc/init.d/stream stop &&"
and when I do tail -f /var/log/monit.log I see this:

----------------------------------
when the stream is running the pid file at /var/run/stream.pid is
always there because I've check it.
why can't monit see the pid file?
