If my start cmd looks like this:

start program = "cd some_path; some_command"

I get this error:

the executable does not exist 'cd'

can't execute the command directly, cd has to happen first. (It's a rake task, it won't work otherwise, lame? yes.)

The issue is that "cd" is part of the shell, not a command.  So is "pushd" if your'e wondering.

So, with monit can I specify the working directory some other way?

start program = "bash -c 'cd some_path; some_command'"

may work.
