Re: apache failed to start | false positive?

[shadow]

Funny thing,

if I copy the file /var/run/apache2/apache2.pid --> /var/run/apache2.pid
(former location in configuration).

Monit is fine and recognized that the service is started and all is fine.

Even if I restart monit it does not recognize the new location. I
expected if I restart it, it should reread the new configuration file.

Is there an option to flush all internal configs and reread them?
