Hi all,

I have written a simple init script for controlling a wiki, and have
encountered a strange effect:

from the init.d directory, I can start and stop my app just fine with
wiki start and wiki stop resp. However, the stop script complains that
the script has not been started!

rc-status does not list my script, however wiki status shows it as started!

The script is as follows:
=====================
# Copyright 1999-2005 Gentoo Foundation
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
# $Header: $

depend() {
        need net
        after domainname
}

start() {
        ebegin "Starting Wiki"
        start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --background --pidfile
/var/run/antwiki.pid --make-pidfile --exec /srv/wiki/wiki-start
        eend $?
}

stop() {
        ebegin "Stopping Wiki"
        start-stop-daemon --stop --pidfile /var/run/antwiki.pid --name wiki
        wget http://localhost:1234/?shutdown > /dev/null
        eend $?
}
==========================

Any ideas?
