Hi,
it is possible the start/stop program failed because of some missing
environment variable - monit purges the environment when executing the program
for security reasons and sets only basic PATH variable. Monit doesn't log the
output from the start/stop script by default, you can capture the output by
wrapping the program like this:
start program = "/bin/bash -c '/etc/init.d/httpd start >>/tmp/httpd.output
2>&1'"
Regards,
Martin
