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

[kenichi.futatsumori]

I added "with timeout" parameter, but  no changes.
My process "a" is  up within 10 sec. 
Maybe nothing to relate timeout and this problem in my case.


Watching monit.log, I found debug entry. What's happen ?

[JST Mar  8 11:54:57] info     : start service 'a' on user request
