[monit] Monit to monitor http process, not response code

[Chanchal James]

Hi,

How can I have monit monitor http process without checking the http response code.

Monit restarts http when index file is missing, because it throws 403 error. I would like it to restart http only when http process isnt running and probably report by mail if response code is an error(403, 500, 404 etc).


My config is:

check process apache with pidfile /usr/local/apache/logs/httpd.pid
start program = "/etc/init.d/httpd start"
stop program  = "/etc/init.d/httpd stop"
if failed host 127.0.0.1 port 80 protocol http
    then restart
if failed host 127.0.0.1 port 443 type tcpssl protocol http
    then restart
if 5 restarts within 5 cycles then timeout
group server


Thanks for any help.
