hello the problem is that start-stop-daemon can't start the server if the old (shutting down) process is still running since it just allows one instance
a simple solution is to copy the "start" section in the initscript and rename it to "force-start", change the --pidfile $PIDFILE to --pidfile /dev/null and invoke "$0 force-start" instead of "$0 start" in the reload action ..., though i got some 500 errors after reloading from php scripts (probably because the old and new process both use the same fcgi socket for php?) cheers, eliteforce -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Email service worth paying for.
