docker run -ti -p 2812:2812 -v $(pwd)/monitrc:/etc/monitrc monit
Docker Hub image
-
pull docker image from docker hub:
docker pull kijart/monit -
start monit:
docker run -ti -p 2812:2812 -v $(pwd)/monitrc:/etc/monitrc kijart/monit -
create a docker container:
docker create \
--name=monit \
-p 2812:2812 \
-v $(pwd)/monitrc:/etc/monitrc \
kijart/monit
Docker compose
-
create a container using docker-compose:
docker-compose up --no-start -
start monit:
docker-compose up
Troubleshooting
If when starting Monit returns the following message: The control file '/etc/monitrc' permission 0755 is wrong, maximum 0700 allowed, simply give the appropriate permissions to monitrc: chmod 700 monitrc.
