<processname>
        
        here's my monitrc file...
        
        #===== startup
        set daemon 60
        
        #===== http access
        set httpd port 2812 and
             allow admin:test
        
        #===== log file
        #set logfile syslog facility log_daemon
        set logfile /var/log/monit.log
        
        #===== rails_toucan_manager
        check process rails_toucan_manager
            with pidfile "/home/me/workspace/rails_toucan/log/manager.pid"
            mode active
            start program = "/usr/bin/ruby 
        /home/me/workspace/rails_toucan/script/runner2 
--pidfile=log/manager.pid 
        --environment=production 'Manager.start' &"
        
        
        
        
        
        When I run "sudo monit start rails_toucan_manager", I see this in the 
log...
        
        [CDT May  5 16:03:07] info     : Monit has not changed
        [CDT May  5 16:03:27] error    : 'rails_toucan_manager' process is not 
        running

        running with pid 8214
        
        
        
        now when I kill process 8214, I see this in the log...
        
        [CDT May  5 16:12:48] error    : 'rails_toucan_manager' process is not 
        running

        What I REALLY want is for monit to start the process !  Thats the whole 
        point.  I must be doing something really dumb.  I am also running on 
        ubuntu feisty.
