Hi Igor

thanks for your answer but i have plesk 10.1.1

i dont find /usr/local/etc/psa/modules/watchdog/monitrc.tpl in plesk 10 version

thanks for your help
 
I have checked it on 10.1.1 version:
# rpm -q psa-watchdog
psa-watchdog-10.10.1-cos5.build1010110120.18

# rpm -ql psa-watchdog | grep monitrc.tpl
/usr/local/psa/etc/modules/watchdog/monitrc.tpl
 
thanks
i found it and changed to :
# Plesk apache
check process plesk_apache
with pidfile "/var/run/sw-cp-server.pid"
start = "<plesk_apache_start>"
stop = "<plesk_apache_stop>"
if failed host localhost port 8443 type tcpssl protocol http with timeout <plesk_apache_connection_timeout> seconds then restart
if <plesk_apache_timeout_restarts> restarts within <plesk_apache_timeout_cycles> cycles then timeout
every <plesk_apache_cycles> cycles
mode <plesk_apache_mode>

when i try
/usr/local/psa/etc/modules/watchdog/wd --regen-all
i have message, cant find the file

and when i try to start watchdog in plesk, i still get same error

thanks for your help
 
when i try
/usr/local/psa/etc/modules/watchdog/wd --regen-all
i have this error message : cant find the file
so its seems "wd" is not found

thanks for your help
 
Remove package with

rpm -e psa-watchdog

Then run /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/autoinstaller and select Watchdog in Additional Plesk modules for installation.
 
thanks
i see the list of options :
i select (16) additionnal components
and i see (5) Wartchog

when i write 5 et click on enter, the 5 disappear and nothing happend
 
ALL IS OK
i reinstalled using plesk update
watchog started now
thanks for your help and patience !
 
Hi Igor,

I have exactly the same problem with v10.2, I'm on Debian but have done exactly as you suggest, i.e. remove and reinstall with the autoinstaller.

I still get: Error: Error occurred while reading template file /opt/psa/etc/modules/watchdog/monitrc.tpl for the monit service

[UPDATE]For some reason 2 files seem to of been renamed incorrectly to:

/opt/psa/etc/modules/watchdog/monitrc.tpl.psasaved
/opt/psa/etc/modules/watchdog/monitrc_vz.tpl.psasaved

I simply removed .psasaved from the end of the files and the module loaded...[UPDATE]

Please advise further, as far as I am concerned this issue is still unresolved.

Thanks in advance.

Bad Doggie!

A bit of and update the supposed fix I thought i found did not work! Watchdog kept senting out false errors and restarting apache approx 4 times an hour. Uninstalling watchdog resolves the problem. Sadly as far as I'm concerned Watchdog is broke on Debian 5.x for Plesk 10.2
