Thank you Martin. Your idea sparked some thought and eventually lead to the
fix.
All Tomcat needs for starting is JAVA_HOME environment variable. Here is a
snippet from /etc/init.d/tomcat
export JAVA_HOME=/appl/java
start() {
echo -n $"Starting Tomcat Java server: "
daemon su -c /appl/tomcat/bin/startup.sh dmsadm
echo
return $RETVAL
}
Though JAVA_HOME is set and defined in this file monit was unable to start
tomcat. (I still don't know why).
I wanted to try calling tomcat startup script directly from monit. so I've
added the following line to /appl/tomcat/startup.sh
export JAVA_HOME=/appl/java
Next change I made was to monitrc, where I've replaced
# Tomcat
check process tomcat with pidfile "/var/run/tomcat.pid"
start program = "/etc/init.d/tomcat start"
stop program = "/etc/init.d/tomcat stop"
if failed port 8080 then alert
with
# Tomcat
check process tomcat with pidfile "/var/run/tomcat.pid"
start program = "/appl/tomcat/bin/startup.sh"
as uid 528 gid 528
stop program = "/appl/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh"
as uid 528 gid 528
if failed port 8080 then alert
With these changes monit is now able to start, stop, restart tomcat without
any issues.
