[Zope] I'm stuck getting Zope to start on boot RH7

Since Redhat 7, the init.d functionality has changed.
You must now use chkconfig to not only create symlinks in the staged rc.#
directories, but you need the inclusion of a function file.
What happens is the you must create a script in /etc/rc.d/init.d/zope2 that
has an intelligent method of querying a script such as start. This script
must be able to understand the following:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/zope2 start
/etc/rc.d/init.d/zope2 stop
/etc/rc.d/init.d/zope2 restart
/etc/rc.d/init.d/zope2 status
You cannot take start now and place it in init.d. In Redhat 7+ I suggest you
check the atd script for an example.
Here is a script I modified for zope, that works, but not entirely:
#!/bin/bash
#
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/zope2
#
# Starts the Zope daemon
#
# chkconfig: 345 85 85
# description: Zope server.
. /etc/init.d/functions
RETVAL=0
#
# See how we were called.
#
prog="Zope2"
start() {
# Check if atd is already running
echo -n $"Starting $prog: "
/var/Zope-233b/start
RETVAL=$?
[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ]
echo
return $RETVAL
}
stop() {
echo -n $"Stopping $prog: "
/var/Zope-233b/stop
RETVAL=$?
[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ]
echo
return $RETVAL
}
restart() {
stop
start
}
reload() {
restart
}
status_at() {
status /var/Zope-233b/start
}
case "$1" in
start)
start
;;
stop)
stop
;;
reload|restart)
restart
;;
condrestart)
if [ -f /var/lock/subsys/atd ]; then
restart
fi
;;
status)
status_at
;;
*)
echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|condrestart|status}"
exit 1
esac
exit $?
exit $RETVAL
Hope this helps,
Paz

Subject: [Zope] I'm stuck getting Zope to start on boot RH7
subject really says it all. From the command line, in /etc/init.d/ I can
execute a script called zope which starts Zope properly (I can see it
with ps -ef).
Using Control Panel, I've placed zope in the start and stop places
properly, and upon boot, there is a message that Zope has been started
(OK), but ps -ef tells me that this is not so, i.e., it's been stopped
somehow.
Can someone suggest things I should do?
I got this going on RH6, on a sparc machine, but this is a i386 machine
and a slightly higher level of RH.
Thanks
