RE: Problems : start action status is always "failed to start" when check process with matching

[kenichi.futatsumori]

I modified  full path description to the app and tried again.(reload , stop and 
start)
But service status is also  "Execution Failed".

On monit manual....

CHECK PROCESS <unique name> <PIDFILE <path> | MATCHING <regex>>

Matching needs <regex>.  and so matching is able to set full or relative path.


Thanks.
Kenichi in Japan.
