[Serusers] Starting SER : PID file exists (/var/run/ser.pid)already running?

Hello,

When I removed the ser.pid file from /var/run and ran
/opt/ser/sbin/serctl start, it said SER had started. Then when I look
at pstree, I see 2 * [ser]. However usually when SER is working
properly it says 27 * [ser]. When I check netstat -tunap, I dont see
SER working.

Any other ideas?

><DIV class=RTE>&gt;Hi, </DIV>
><DIV></DIV>&gt;
><DIV></DIV>&gt;I am wondering if anyone has ever come across this
>error before?:
><DIV></DIV>&gt;
><DIV></DIV>&gt;Starting SER : PID file exists! (/var/run/ser.pid)
>already running?
><DIV></DIV>&gt;
><DIV></DIV>&gt;I am using ser 0.9.0 and it worked like a charm the
>first few times
><DIV></DIV>&gt;that I stopped and started SER. There are no errors in
><DIV></DIV>&gt;/var/log/messages. I also started SER as
>/opt/ser/sbin/ser -c and it
><DIV></DIV>&gt;showed that the config was ok and exited. However when
>I check
><DIV></DIV>&gt;pstree, I dont see SER listening.
><DIV></DIV>&gt;
><DIV></DIV>&gt;Could it perhaps be something got to do with the
>database?. Example:
><DIV></DIV>&gt;Should the version table in the SER database contain
>"version" or
><DIV></DIV>&gt;"table_version"? I have tried dropping and restarting
>the database
><DIV></DIV>&gt;i.e. /opt/ser/sbin/ser_mysql.sh drop, then
><DIV></DIV>&gt;./opt/ser/sbin/ser_mysql.sh create.
><DIV></DIV>&gt;
><DIV></DIV>&gt;Any ideas would be appreciated.
><DIV></DIV>&gt;Thanks,
><DIV></DIV>&gt;Aisling.
