Read what i wrote:

--------------

Note esp. the paragraph:

"All tools by default are started in loop mode. With the -c option you 
can turn this off to run only once. In loop mode the scripts should not 
be stopped by pressing CTRL-C but using the stop mode (-s) of the same 
script. This makes sure the script exits in a clean state."

Once the scripts have been started in loop mode you have to stop them 
with the described method - otherwise they won't start again - even 
after a reboot.

--------------

So if you get the above message (which does not mena the script is 
running, just that it has been started but not yet safely exited) use 
the stop mode and you will be able to start the scripts again.

When you have started the scripts they will render any project added to 
the 'jobs' directory - the project manager will prepare the render tasks 
and the client(s) will render them.
