I have a Procfile like this:

web: bundle exec unicorn -c config/unicorn.rb -E production
god: god -c services.god

but foreman start god doesn't start...it's just say this:

17:14:32 god.1  | started with pid 29506
17:14:32 god.1  | exited with code 0
17:14:32 system | sending SIGTERM to all processes
SIGTERM received

if I run god -c services.god, all services run fine...
Any ideas?
Thanks

You should not be running god with foreman. foreman is used to specify all the background (and web) processes in your application, and god is a process monitoring framework for those processes.

Typically, you should:

  1. Specify all your processes directly in your Procfile (instead of services.god), and use foreman start to run them in development.
  2. Use god to monitor the processes in production. I use my foreman_god gem to load the Procfile directly with god. Alternatively, you can export a god config file.

That said, if you really want to run god from foreman: god runs as a daemon by default, and daemons don't work with foreman (see this wiki page). It should work if you pass the -D (Don't daemonize) option to god:

god: god -D -c services.god

may be you should use something like this if you are using god with rvm,

god: rvmsudo god -c /path_to_yourgod_file.god

but why you need two different monitoring systems while you can use any one them to get your work done?
