monit does not respect program dependency

[Harivardhan Pyaram]

If a process has a program dependency, monit should start the program only if the program exits with status ok. monit doesn't do that. It simply monitors the program and starts the process without waiting for the program to return a status ok.

monit-5.15-beta doesn't seem to have the hard dependencies yet. monit is still starting the process even with the program failing

[Tildeslash]

Please can you start monit in debug mode, reproduce the problem and send full output to [e-mail]?

Debug mode:

monit -vI

Thanks for data.

Monit didn’t start the dependant service if the required/parent service failed, but it did allow the test if such dependant/child to be performed.

The problem is fixed, you can get the updated beta here: https://mmonit.com/monit/dist/monit-5.15_beta2.tar.gz
