Autostart - Process monitor fails on State Monitor Script

Question

(reposted from wrong forum)

Hey folks,
Hoping someone has run across this error and might have a solution.

I am having issues with my State Monitor Script which is causing my process monitoring to fail.
It seems like every time the script runs an error is returned.
the script runs just fine on its own. Is Autostart looking for some specific output to standard out or to standard error?

Ive had this issue with both the Unix (solaris) version and with the Windows version 5.2.

"Starting process processname on nodename [pid=8280]"
"Process processname on nodename failed [pid=8280]"
"Automatically restarting process processname"

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Stefano.

Autostart just checks if the script exits with exit 0 or not. As long as the returned code is 0, the monitored resource is assumed to be online.
I'd say the problem is in the existence monitor script itself, but it is hard to say without looking at the actual script. You may redirect the standard output and standard error of the process to a file and set the FT_TRACE_TESTS environment variable to 1 - that will redirect the output of the existence test to a file a swell and you may spot where the problem is.
Bottom line is - the problem is in the existence script only.
