An update for the stopping action. It returns a nice message when it is stopped already.

stop() {

  status
  if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
    echo "Stopping sidekiq message processor .."
    SIG="INT"
    kill -$SIG `cat $PID_FILE`
    RETVAL=$?
    [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f $LOCK_FILE
    return $RETVAL
  else
    echo "Sidekiq message processor is stopped already .."
  fi

}

Also verry helpfull when using capistrano, it will not stop further execution of the script when the worker is not running but will just continue.

Where should APP_CONFIG be used?

Thank you. I've spent several hours before I've realized that upstart daemon have a error with the launching of sidekiq forks.

how do you deal with restart?

@elfassy restart = stop + start
