Hi @tpbowden, I joined the team which added the RHEL/CentOS support after they added it. My guess is that once it was working for CentOS, they stopped caring about the rest of the RHEL family. A vague memory of looking at the code supports this. I'll be looking further into this, and I suggest you or anyone else on RHEL proper do the same.
Is the ohai platform attribute used to decide which directory to take the template from? In which case it just requires either an override or copy/paste job to add more platforms (oracle for example)
@eric239 Do you recall?
At a quick glance it looks like the default recipe does not call _service_configuration which deploys the init.d.
Try adding it to your run list directly
I'm trying to install monit on RHEL (6.4) from binary and I can't figure out how to get it to copy the correct init.d template. I've tried manually and the version in templates/centos works perfectly but for some reason it only copies the version from templates/default. I can't tell if this is a bug or I'm just missing something.
Thanks in advance.
