Thanks Nikki. I was running out of ideas. (Lee's already said it works from the command line, I think BTW, but not from a script).
By the way, if you and Lee do get a solution it would be really helpful to post it somewhere as an example of how to do this in a RH-based distribution. I'll try and keep an eye on how things go to see if I can be of some help in that regard (although I have no special expertise, so I'm probably not the best person). But there have been so many questions about this, that there definitely should be a document somewhere that explains, in as disty-neutral way as possible, how to do it. This is not to belittle the work others have already done, by the way - especially Robert Jordan who was a huge help to me when I was struggling with this.

OK. Step 1 - from the command line, type in exactly what you have in the script - i.e. /opt/mono-1.1.15/bin/mono-service /path/to/my/exe Does it run now? -- Nikki Locke, Trumphurst Ltd.
