Thanks Martin! By absolute paths I suppose you mean:
start program = "/usr/bin/ruby
/home/ramon/app/current/script/backgroundrb start"
I get the exact same response :( It starts if I do it through the
command line (but with "sudo" at the beginning) and "Execution failed"
if I use monit to start it.
