Hi Martin
Thanks for the update. Using monit command without any argument, the
monit daemon gets started fine. I can see /var/run/monit.pid file. After
this when I start all the service using the command - 'monit start all'
I get - monit: Cannot connect to the monit daemon. Did you start it with
http support?.
Also when I do 'monit status' I get - monit: error connecting to the
monit daemon. Could you suggest as to what can be the problem.
Thanks
Navin

Please run exactly this command without any additional argument:
monit -c /home/ritesh/monit-4.6/monitrc
When you want to start monit in daemon mode, you must *not* use any
argument. Look for example on the monit init script:

b/rc.monit?rev=1.10

Hi Ben
Thanks for quick update.
I am attaching the monitrc control file which I am using.
I am also attaching the things I get on console when I start monit
with
verbose option. It confirms the starting of monit in daemon mode.
I have already set the logfile as specified by you but it does not
show
any error on start. Monit starts without error but when I do 'monit
status' it gives me - 'monit: no status available -- the monit daemon
is
not running'.
Thanks
Navin

Hello
I am trying to run Monit on Red Hat Linux version - Fedora core
release 3. I extracted the downloaded gunzip file and then ran
./configure, make and make install. All these steps executes fine
without any error. It creates an executable monit under /usr/local/bin
as per documentation. After this I start monit with command 'monit -v
start all' in daemon mode. The verbose confirms the starting in the
daemon mode. The start does not show any error. But when I do 'monit
status' or 'monit summary' I get: monit daemon is not running. This
is a problem as to why monit fails to run as daemon. I read the
documentation of monit about platforms. It does not mention any such
problem. But I see this as some compatability problem with the Linux
platform I am using. It seems that that the monit script fails on
trying to run monit as daemon on OS. I am clueless because start does
show any error. Can someone suggest the reason of the problem.
Thanks Navin
Navin,
I run monit on fedora core3 without any trouble.
Could you post your /etc/monitrc file, so that we may see if it is a
configuration issue?
You could also add "set logfile /var/log/monit.log" to your monitrc to
enable logging - it might give you more information.
