I guess I was not sure what would be better, a failure to install foreman on
RHEL5 (as the package is missing) or a failure when starting foreman.
I know (and its in the release notes), I've asked the upstream maintainer in
EPEL to update the package, but if that won't be provided, I guess we could
try to provide a newer version in foreman's repo.

there are also new packages for Foreman 0.2 RC1 and Smart-Proxy 0.1 (package
called foreman-proxy) in the testing repository for Debian and Ubuntu Linux.
You can find installation instructions in the Foreman wiki under 1.
I'd like to encourage everybody with some spare time to give these packages a
test run so that they can move to the stable repository in a timely manner
after the coming Foreman 0.2 release. If you encounter any errors, please file
a bug for the packages in our issue tracker[2].

the output of the Foreman init script doesn't print any error in the output
you've provided. Maybe you could change the start-stop-daemon call in the init
script's do_start() function to include the --verbose (-v) parameter and
remove the output redirection (>/dev/null) from the same line.
I hope that this will give an indication where to look for the error.

Jochen

Hi Jochen, thanks for looking into it, next day I did a try and everything
looked good, not really sure what happened, I just couldn't see foreman
running after initializing, I've tried to replicate but haven't had luck so
far, and I think that is good, I'll let you all know if there is anything
odd on it.
Thanks.
