Monit 4.9, Mongrel 1.0.1, Rails 1.2.6, Mac OS X 10.4.11 (PPC) I don''t know whether this is a mongrel issue or a monit issue. I''m trying to poke my way around a system set up by someone else. I have no more experience w/ mongrel that local Rails dev at this point, and a conceptual unde...

I have this configuration: class monit { # Installing packages. package { "monit": ensure => latest; } file { "/etc/default/monit": owner => "root", group => "root", mode => "0644", source => "puppet:///monit/etc/default/monit", } file { "/etc/mon...

I started emailing monit mailing list because I started getting this problem where I couldn''t start backgroundrb with monit anymore, thinking it was a monit problem. However, I back tracked a bit since I had added code to my project, and monit was able to start backgroundrb again. I seem to have zeroed in on the...

Has anybody here tried the "Monit" utility (http://mmonit.com/monit/)? I need to set up some kind of "watchdog" functionality for a custom service otherwise started via init (i.e. via a script in /etc/init.d + rc*.d links managed by chkconfig) and it seems like this system may give me nearly what I want. However,...

Alright, I have googles and read through the docs on monit I get this error when adding -v starting monit monit: Cannot connect to the monit daemon. Did you start it with http support? monit: Cannot connect to the monit daemon. Did you start it with http support? Am I missing something here? set daemon 120 set logfile syslog facility log_daemon set ma...

Might there be anything CentOS related on why I cannot access the Monit GUI system on http://box-running-monit.com:2812 ? I am using a very basic /etc/monit.conf config, but I cannot get it serve the web page on my box The service start and stops fine (e.g. "/etc/init.d/monit start"), and I have it set to listen to port 2812 in the "/etc/monit.conf fil...

While I could figure this out, I''m asking here first to see if anyone has already dealt with/created this. I''m running a mongrel cluster, running 4 mongrels on ports 8001-4. I''m using capistrano to deploy. And I''d like to use monit to check to make sure everything is running nice. I''d like to have monit restart only single mongrels if they fail, and also have monit restart the mongrels after logrotate does it''s thing. Any quick suggestions/examples on a script for monit/logrotate? Thanks BTW I''m...

Hi, was wondering if anyone else had a similar problem and knows why or a solution. basically my mongrels seems to work fine. i am running three clusters all which are monitored by monit. monit has the ability to restart a mongrel if it doesn''t pass a port connection test. so the problem is that after some time. aprox. 6hrs. to 20hrs. after clusters are started, the mongrels get restarted by monit due to monit not being able to connect to said port. not...

Greetings - I dug around a bit and I couldn''t find a definitive answer to this question, apologies if it''s been covered before. A box running a apache 2.2 -> mongrel cluster for a rails app got power cycled at my ISP. Unfortunately monit couldn''t start the mongrel processes because the pid files were still there. Here is my monit config (for each mongrel process): check process myapp_mongrel_8000 with pidfile /data/wwwroot/myapp.com/ log/mongrel.8000.pid start program = "/usr/bin/mongrel_rails start -d...

Is there anything mongrel cluster gives you that monit doesn''t? I''ll be using monit to monitor a number of other services anyways, so it seems logical to just use it for everything including mongrel. Chris

Hi -- I have been reading documentation and googling around to find the correct way to do this but I have found many ways that seem to not work, or the documentation makes no reference to. I am using mongrel cluster with 10 mongrels for each server. Recently I installed monit but which lead me to find the correct way to start/stop mongrel instances one pid at a time. I am assuming one pid at a time is the correct way... Currently, when I do a cap deploy we just kick mongrels with /etc/init.d/mongrel_rails.. I am assuming I should be using monit now when I deploy to do...

Hi there, I would like to config Monit to monitor our production-unicorn-workers What memory size would you recommend to be the maximum reachable for a worker? so Monit can restart it. Thanks a lot ! Manuel Palenciano

Hey All, I just wanted to get other peoples take on problems when running merb in production? Just as Rails used to do, the mongrels tend to get heavy/unresponsive over time so need a good kicking by a watcher daemon like god or monit. However, I have had serious problems getting God to restart the process, as the "merb -k <port>" command doesnt appear to work reliably and it cant kill off the old merb successfully so restarting the new one fails :''( What have other people experienced? How are you...

Just curious as to the functionality of puppet. Does Puppet ensure that a service is up and running as long as puppet is running? Ie, I want to make sure ssh is always running, if for some reason ssh get''s shut down, does puppet start it back up when it does it''s config sync run?

Hi there everybody, We''re having mongrel processes slowly die on us, with a segmentation fault. I''ve seen a few other people mention similar issues. Any info or suggestions would be nice: Error: /var/www/apps/heritage/current/config/../vendor/plugins/file_column/ lib/magick_file_column.rb:7: [BUG] Segmentation fault ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i386-linux] Server:

Hello all, So, I''ve been using monit with mongrel for a while now, since the 0.3.x days (I think it was). It used to work fine, but now I seem to be having some trouble. I''m currently using mongrel 1.0.1 and I am using the same monit configuration I''ve always been using, yet everytime monit should restart mongrel, I...
