Have the following line change in your /etc/init.d/ser file.
OPTIONS="-P /var/run/ser.pid"

Thank you very much, Zeus! After puting OPTIONS="-P /var/run/ser.pid" to ser file. when I check status "ser dead but pid file exists" and also I can use my serctl utility. Before everything worked fine, but I don't know why suddenly this happened. Would you give me some explanations? Thanks again, Peter

I don't quite follow your questions but I'll try to explain.
With /etc/init.d/ser, if ser dies and does not remove the pid file properly, you will get the error "ser dead but pid file exists". Normally, ser will remove the file. You can manually remove it if it wasn't the case. In redhat, it also create the file /var/lock/subsys/ser which serctl does not handle. Also, make sure the line
ser=/usr/local/sbin/ser # full path of your ser
The /etc/init.d/ser is more suitable for system boot time and shutdown. Normally, you should just use serctl to control ser.

Thanks, Zeus! I tried everything with "/etc/init.d/ser start" then check status with "/etc/init.d/ser status" . first it showed "ser dead but pid file exists" then when I removed pid file it showed "ser dead subsys locked" and I couldn't use serctl everytime I tried to use it it just could not response. I have reinstalled ser rpm, and now ser works. Thank you for your reply! peter
