[ic] Restart Problem

[Tom Compton]

Recently installed interchange-4.5.5-1.i386.rpm on Linux RedHat 6.0
running Apache.  At the end of installation minivend was running.
Tried to restart:

minivend -restart

Received an error message that it could not find the pid.  Looked in
the error.log file and found:

Couldn't open '/usr/local/interchange/etc/minivend.pid': Permission
denied

(Actually the file did not exist).  Searched for minivend.pid and made
a link:

/etc/minivend.pid -> /var/run/interchange/minivend.pid

Tried again.  The next error message was

Could not bind (open as a socket) '/usr/local/interchange/etc/socket':
> Permission denied

Searched for socket, found it, and created a link:
/etc/socket -> /var/run/interchange/socket

Tried again.  The next error message has me stumped:

Could not bind (open as a socket) '/usr/local/interchange/etc/socket':
> Address already in use

I uninstalled interchange and reinstalled it and it started.  However,
restart still does not work.

Any clues?
