No, it doesn't daemoniz or fork anything and
prints stuff to stdout and stderr only -
because I was running it with /etc/inittab
on the CentOS 5.7 (and thus shouldn't daemonize).
The pid doesn't match or I can't get it:
(I've omitted "sudo " below, I use CLI as "afarber"):
# initctl status pref
pref start/running, process 1507
# initctl restart pref
pref start/running, process 2083
# initctl restart pref
initctl: Unknown instance:
# initctl restart pref
initctl: Unknown instance:
# ps uwx
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND
afarber 1532 0.0 0.0 108788 15084 ? S 16:05 0:00
/usr/bin/perl -w /usr/local/pref/pref.pl
# netstat -an | grep -w 8080
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8080 0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN
# initctl status pref
pref stop/waiting
Any ideas please?
I've also added more details at

Thank you
