Re: Upgraded from 5.4 to 5.10 and everything started to break

[Roman Kournjaev]

Well it took a while,

Also the my initial script and the script Russell suggested worked only after adding /usr/bin/sudo when executing it.

So the command was :  stop program = "/usr/bin/sudo /etc/init.d/stop-main.sh"

Pretty confusing, but it works at last.

Thanks,

Roman

Hi,

you use nested quotes with no escaping, so the command is not valid. If you need more complicated script, it's better to move it to standalone script as Russell suggested in previous response.

Regards,

Hi 

I have upgraded to monit 5.10 yesterday and most of my startup scripts that monit was monitoring stopped working. 

Thats an example script .

So I started to patch things :

check process main_loop

matching "python poll.py"

   start program = "/bin/bash -c 'cd /opt/wondermall-scrapers/code; /usr/bin/python poll.py &'" with timeout 60 seconds

   stop program = "/bin/bash -c 'kill $(ps aux | grep "[p]ython poll.py" | awk "{print \$2}")'"

if uptime > 1 hours then restart

But the stop command also fails and I am getting the following mail back form monit : 

Monit alert main_loop at Tue, 11 Nov 2014 18:48:37 on full-scraper-dev-9d66.c.wondermall-dev.internal,

failed to stop (exit status 123) -- /bin/bash:
Usage:
 kill [options] <pid> [...]

Options:
 <pid> [...]            send signal to every <pid> listed
 -<signal>, -s, --signal <signal>
                        specify the <signal> to be sent
 -l, --list=[<signal>]  list all signal names, or

Dutifully,
Monit

Of course that works when executing in simple bash , someone know what I am doing wrong ?

Thanks

Roman
