Thank you very much Dave.
I'll look into this and give feedback.

You may not have monit running as a service. Check the current
status of monit:
monit status
It will tell you if it is running.
If it is not start it with:
/etc/init.d/monit start
I primarily use centos and fedora but I think that will work with
debian systems too.
I think that the default config does not have the daemon set to
listen for communication. It needs this for commands like "monit
status" and "monit monitor opensips" and "monit unmonitor opensips"
something like this:
set httpd port 2812 and
use address localhost # only accept connection from localhost
allow localhost
Also you don't want to use the same call to the init.d script that
is used to start it up regularly otherwise you get a loop going or
at least double notify of (un)monitor actions.
What I do for the opensips portion of the monit config is have it
call /etc/init.d/opensips monit_start.
Then in /etc/init.d/opensips I have it catch that arg and not tell
monit to monitor but call the regular start function. When it gets
the regular start arg it calls the regular start function and then
tells monit to start monitoring it.
Also when the init.d script gets a restart command I don't update
monit It checks the pid file itself and realizes that the pid has
changed and sends a message to that affect rather then two messages,
one that it us unmonitoring and one that it is monitoring.
I've attached the /etc/init.d/opensips that I'm currently using.
Don't forget to make sure that the monit daemon will start on next
reboot.
The attached init.d/opensips script uses some of redhats conventions
for displaying success/failure and adjust the working directory
according to your install. But I think overall it should be fairly
portable to other distros.
Note. Many of the options I pass to opensips are usually set in the
script. For the passed options to work they can not be set in
opensips.cfg.
You may also notice that for a restart it validates the config
before allowing a restart. It does two levels of checks, the
opensips -C to verify the syntax of the config and actually starts a
minimal opensips because sometimes there are things that will make
it not work even when the syntax checks out.
The test run listens on lo:2056 so beware incase of conflicts. YMMV
Hope that helps.

Hi Everyone
I've successfully installed Opensips-cp 4 and got the Statistics
monitoring to work, but I'm unable to get Monit to work.
I've been all over google and tested recommendations, but with no
luck.
This is the procedure I followed to install Monit:
Step 1: Install Monit:
apt-get install monit
Step 2: Once installed, you'll find the main configuration file.
vi /etc/monit/monitrc
set daemon 120
set logfile syslog facility log_daemon
set alert r...@localhost
set httpd port 2812 and
use address yourdomain.com
allow localhost # allow localhost to connect to the server and
allow youripaddress # allow 192.168.1.2 to connect to the
server, ###(What IP should this be? The IP of the this Box or
where I am connecting from?)
# You can give only one per entry
allow admin:monit # user name and password for
authentication. ###(I guess the Username and Password will be
admin:admin if my login to Opensips-cp ios admin:admin)
check process opensips with pidfile /var/run/opensips.pid
###(For Some Reason this does not work. Had to comment all).
#Below is actions taken by monit when service got stuck.
start program = "/etc/init.d/opensips start"
stop program = "/etc/init.d/opensips stop"
# Admin will notify by mail if below of the condition satisfied.
if cpu is greater than 70% for 2 cycles then alert
if cpu > 90% for 5 cycles then restart
Step 3: After modifying the configuration file, you should check for
the syntax to
make sure that everything is correct. To do this, run:
# monit -t (When I run this I get syntax OK)
Step 4: Edit the /etc/default/monit file and change the parameters
as follows:
# You must set this variable to for 1 monit to start
startup=1
# To change the intervals which monit should run uncomment
# and change this variable.
# CHECK_INTERVALS=180
Configuring OpenSIPS Control Panel
Step 1: Configure the database access parameters. Edit the
db.inc.php file, which is
valid for all modules. You may change the database parameters for a
single module
inside the module configuration section.
For example:
cd /var/www/opensips-cp/config
vi db.inc.php
//database host
$config->db_host = "localhost";
//database port - leave empty for default
$config->db_port = "";
//database connection user
$config->db_user = "root";
//database connection password
$config->db_pass = "opensips";
//database name
$config->db_name = "opensips";
if ($config->db_port != "")$config->db_host=$config->db_host":"
$config->db_port;
Step 2: Configure the FIFO access in the boxes.global.inc.php file:
cd /var/www/opensips-cp/config/
vi boxes.global.inc.php
$box_id=0;
// mi host:port pair || fifo_file
$boxes[$box_id]['mi']['conn']="127.0.0.1:8000"; # (I added this
line, as per recommendation I found searching Google).
$boxes[$box_id]['mi']['conn']="/tmp/opensips_fifo";
// monit host:port
$boxes[$box_id]['monit']['conn']="127.0.0.1:2812";
$boxes[$box_id]['monit']['user']="admin";
$boxes[$box_id]['monit']['pass']="monit";
$boxes[$box_id]['monit']['has_ssl']=0;
// description (appears in mi , monit )
$boxes[$box_id]['desc']="primary SIP server";
$boxes[$box_id]['assoc_id']=1;
// enable local smonitor charts on this box : 0=disabled 1=enabled
// (cron)
$boxes[$box_id]['smonitor']['charts']=1;
I added modparam("mi_fifo", "fifo_mode", 0666) to /etc/opensips/
opensips.cfg
Restart apache
This i what I did to get Statistics Monitor working:
Setup Smonitor Tables
1. Copy tables.mysql
cp /var/www/opensips-cp/config/tools/system/smonitor/tables.mysql /
var/www/opensips-cp/web/tools/system/smonitor/tables.mysql
mysql -p opensips < tables.mysql
Thanks in advance for the help.
