I'm not aware of any versions other than 0.2.x and 0.3.x being available.

You don't provide the version of devmon you are using, but it would seem that 
you haven't configured the pidfile value in devmon.cfg, or the pid file 
configured there contains something it shouldn't, or similar. The code before 
line 272 in current source does some checks on the pid file, and I can't think 
off-hand what could cause this error (without logging something about it).

Check what you have for pidfile in devmon.cfg, and investigate the file itself
