The Monit webinterfcae is showing: Execution failed | Does not exist
netstat is giving me:
sudo netstat -lnp | grep mysql
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:33060 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4643/mysqld
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4643/mysqld
unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 90220 4643/mysqld /var/run/mysqld/mysqlx.sock
unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 90222 4643/mysqld /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
And monit -v (if this helps):
Process Name = mysqld
Group = mysql, database
Pid file = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
Monitoring mode = active
On reboot = start
Start program = '/etc/init.d/mysql start' timeout 30 s
Stop program = '/etc/init.d/mysql stop' timeout 30 s
Existence = if does not exist then restart
Depends on Service = mysql_rc
Depends on Service = mysql_bin
Port = if failed [localhost]:3306 type TCP/IP protocol MYSQL with timeout 15 s for 3 times within 4 cycles then restart
Unix Socket = if failed /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock type TCP protocol MYSQL with timeout 5 s for 3 times within 4 cycles then restart
Timeout = If restarted 5 times within 5 cycle(s) then unmonitor
File Name = mysql_bin
Group = mysql
Path = /usr/sbin/mysqld
Monitoring mode = active
On reboot = start
Existence = if does not exist then restart
Checksum = if failed defc97a98deb37905c97d9b5a09f9f13(MD5) then unmonitor
Permission = if failed 0755 then unmonitor
UID = if failed 0 then unmonitor
GID = if failed 0 then unmonitor
File Name = mysql_rc
Group = mysql
Path = /etc/init.d/mysql
Monitoring mode = active
On reboot = start
Existence = if does not exist then restart
Checksum = if failed 89a1a5b6ad710389112802fc3fbb81e1(MD5) then unmonitor
Permission = if failed 0755 then unmonitor
UID = if failed 0 then unmonitor
GID = if failed 0 then unmonitor
So even if mysql is running and active Monit can't detect it. I set the symlink with:
sudo ln -s /etc/monit/conf-available/mysql /etc/monit/conf-enabled/
Using Ubuntu 20.04
