Re: ok, loosing patience here, is monit supposed to make my life easier ?

Andrew,

I don't know much about mongrel and rails, and the like, but are you 
recording the PID of these processes. (Yes I know it's a stupid 
question, but sometimes we over look the obvious)

My thought is that for some reason monit isnt't seeing the proccess 
bacause it doesn't know it's PID.

HTH,

Clifford.
