RE: Help on building MONIT on Solaris x86-64

Hi!

I realized the problem now. It is due to the syslog configuration.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Apr 10 05:58:24 host1 monit[16128]: [ID 111343 local1.error] 'applog' process is not running

Apr 10 05:58:24 host1 monit[16128]: [ID 341506 local1.info] 'applog' trying to restart

Apr 10 05:58:24 host1 monit[16128]: [ID 112587 local1.info] 'applog' start: /bin/su

Apr 10 05:58:24 host1 monit[16128]: [ID 111343 local1.error] 'applog' process is not running

Apr 10 05:59:30 host1 monit[16128]: [ID 111343 local1.info] 'applog' process is running with pid 25426

BTW, can I use MONIT to check the ipcs queue?

Hi,

please can you show the monit configuration for 'logger.pl' service? ('check process ...') and tell which monit version do you use? If you use the pidfile based check, make sure that the pid which is stored in the file matches the running process - if the pidfile was not updated or doesn't exist, monit cannot recognize the process.

I am able to complie now. The monit is running, but I observed that the monit did not tell the process pid after the application is restarted by MONIT. Any idea? I remembered I use MONIT in linux, and the pid will be reported after the application is started successfully.
