How to exec a shell script from root monit (Mac)

Question

I have setup my Mac's launchd to run this monit script:

set daemon 60

set logfile /var/log/monit.log

check host ac_server with address 127.0.0.1
    if failed port 3000
        then exec "/bin/bash -c '/Users/liren/ac-project/monit_task.sh'"

Basically at 60s interval, it will ping my Ruby on Rails server and execute the monit_task.sh script if server is down:

#!/bin/bash

cd "/Users/liren/ac-project/rails_app"
bundle exec "sidekiq -C config/sidekiq.yml" &
rails s -e production

---

monit script is located at /usr/local/etc/monit/monitrc, executed by my LaunchDaemon plist located at /Library/LaunchDaemons/.

However, the shell script just doesn't get executed without any errors showing in log. Any idea why?

Answer 1

Try running:

type bundle
type rails

to find what is actually being run when you use those commands. Then put the full paths you discover as a result into your script.

#!/bin/bash

cd "/Users/liren/ac-project/rails_app"
/full/path/to/bundle exec "sidekiq -C config/sidekiq.yml" &
/full/path/to/rails s -e production
