So you have the restart command setup, but it isn't being run?
Is Webmin actually emailing you when Apache is down? That would determine if
the
problem is with the monitor, or the command ..

Yes, I did.  I setup a monitor for Apache and set it to check when it goes
down.

 

Set to check every 5 minutes and e-mail myself when it goes down as well as
run the command:

 

/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart

 

Now I notice when it runs the check a <defunct> webmin appears for 30
seconds in ps -auxf but goes away.

 

We're running Redhat ES3 and have SSH/Telnet disabled on all IP's except for
one.

 

Could that be causing the issue?  If so is there a way to tell WebMin to use
IP XXX.XXX.XXX.54 when trying to do commands?

 

Thanks!

Is there a way currently to have certain services / CPU processes monitored
with Webmin, and have the services restarted if they go down.  I was looking
at the Webmin Monitor script but it wasn't restarting the HTTP like I wanted
it too.

Hi David,
Have you looked at the System and Server Status module? It lets you monitor
things like Apache, and you can specify a command to run if it is detected
to be down (like apachectl start).
