I think you need to submit your monitrc file and HA scripts and other  
scripts called in each service start/stop command. Its hard to see  
what is wrong here unless you do that. And clearly something is very  
wrong.

You can only submit one and only one group-name to the -g switch! Try  
"monit -g groupname start" instead of "monit -g weeelookat me start"  
the extra 'me' argument is wrong and will cause monit to exit with an  
error message.
