- Monitoring Plesk with Monit
- Plesk is not mentioned anywhere in monit's site http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=plesk+site%3Ammonit.com and I couldn't find any article or tutorial about how to monitor Plesk using Monit, so I'm writing one myself in the hopes other people with the same problem find it.
- Plesk 8.3 on Centos5
- etc/init.d/psa status
- psa dead but subsys locked
- I check plesk's logs but there's nothing there that sheds light on this issue and server utilization has been low.
- the "solution" given by the vendor is to restart plesk http://kb.parallels.com/6566 (duh! but why is Plesk dying?)
- so I looked into adding Plesk as a monitored service in monit.
- upgraded monit to Monit 5.2.5
- add to monit config file:
- check process https with pidfile /usr/local/psa/admin/logs/httpsd.pid
- start program = "/etc/init.d/psa start"
- stop program = "/etc/init.d/psa stop"
- if failed host localhost port 8443 type tcpSSL protocol http
- then restart
- after restarting monit
- Error: ssl check cannot be activated. SSL is not supported
- apt-get install libssl-dev (dind't work)
- apt-get install openssl-devel (Centos5)
- apt-cache search ssl-dev
- this fixed the ssl support issue.
- If that monit configuraiton is not working check that the pid file exists at that location when Plesk is running, test plesk (psa) start/stop commands and check monit errors in its log.
