Problems starting apache 1.3 with mysql

I抳e been working on a project to replace one of the my group抯 primary NIS servers. It also runs mysql and apache, as it is the host for the our team抯 hardware tracking database and website. Its running apache 1.3, and for some odd reason, I can抰 get apache to start on system boot. The original system, prince, used a startup script in /etc/rc3.d called S98hits. It was as follows:

#!/bin/sh

/usr/local/mysql/bin/safe_mysqld &

sleep 30

/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start

This script works fine on prince, but on the new system, serenity, nothing I do will run that apachectl start at boot time. I抳e tried pretty much everything I can think of. From what I抳e seen, if you try to execute apachectl start from a bourne shell, I get a mysql library error, which I抳e tracked down and fixed, yet the fix won抰 work. If you run it from a c-shell, the program executes every time, with no errors, but it won抰 start automatically. The latest iteration of my scripts has a startup script in rc3.d, which reads the following:

#!/bin/sh

/usr/local/apache/bin/startup

startup is a script that I created that contains the following:

#!/bin/csh

/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start

I saw somewhere that scripting in csh without adding a 杅 after the first line can sometimes cause problems, but after trying it, it didn抰 work.

Now, I抦 totally stumped on why nothing is working here. Any ideas?
