Hello all.
I have a pylons application running in a virtual environment.
Can some one give me a hint as to how I could have the virtual environment started and the paster serve production.ini be run as a daemon?

I looked on the internet and found one shell script.
I am paisting the content below but not sure if that shell script initialises the venv.

#! /bin/sh

### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: <my_app> application instance
# Required-Start:    $all
# Required-Stop:     $all
# Default-Start:     2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop:      0 1 6
# Short-Description: starts instance of <my_app> app
# Description:       starts instance of <my app> app using start-stop-daemon
### END INIT INFO

############### EDIT ME ##################
# path to workingenv install if any
PYTHONPATH=<path to pylons workingenv>/lib/python2.4

# path to app
APP_PATH=<path to my_app>

# path to paster bin
DAEMON=<path to pylons workingenv>/bin/paster

# startup args
DAEMON_OPTS=" serve --log-file <my logfile> --server-name=main production.ini"

############### END EDIT ME ##################

test -x $DAEMON || exit 0

set -e

case "$1" in
  start)
        echo -n "Starting $DESC: "
start-stop-daemon -d $APP_PATH -c $RUN_AS --start --background --pidfile $PID_FILE --make-pidfile --exec $DAEMON -- $DAEMON_OPTS
        echo "$NAME."
        ;;
  stop)
        echo -n "Stopping $DESC: "
        start-stop-daemon --stop --pidfile $PID_FILE
        echo "$NAME."
        ;;

  restart|force-reload)
        echo -n "Restarting $DESC: "
        start-stop-daemon --stop --pidfile $PID_FILE
        sleep 1
start-stop-daemon -d $APP_PATH -c $RUN_AS --start --background --pidfile $PID_FILE --make-pidfile --exec $DAEMON -- $DAEMON_OPTS
        echo "$NAME."
        ;;
  *)
        N=/etc/init.d/$NAME
        echo "Usage: $N {start|stop|restart|force-reload}" >&2
        exit 1
        ;;
esac

exit 0

Can this be a more simpler thing than what I paisted?
I did not understand the opts that were passed to the daemon.
I can figure out production.ini but why the other one?

happy hacking.
