Summary: removing openser.pid from /var/run/

Initial Comment:
bug is found in versions : 1.2.2 , 1.3.3 respectively operationg system is Solaris 10

problem:

when starting openser either version 1.2.2 or 1.3.3 using 
/sbin/openserctl start or stop

 there is no problem and the server starts and stops working normally, but when starting it again it Complains that there is another process is already running although the server PID was killed,therefore it gives the following message : 

INFO:PID file exists (/var/run/openser.pid)! OpenSER already running?

solution :

i have edited the openserctl script , specifically the stop operation section to be like that :

openser_stop() {
	echo
	printf "Stopping OpenSER : "
	if [ -r $PID_FILE ] ; then
		kill `cat $PID_FILE`
		rm -f /var/run/openser.pid
                minfo "stopped"

just added the rm -f /var/run/openser.pid command and now everything starts to work without any problem, by the way i don't know it is the right way to do that but at least it works fine for me
