I think maybe in the whelm you may be over that you missed README.rpm. 8-)

I think maybe in the whelm everyone may be over that we all
missed README.rpm. 8-)

    Invocation
        Invocation is the normal /etc/rc.d startup method. Interchange
        installs to be active in run levels 3, 4, and 5; to be killed in
        all.

        IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not expect /usr/lib/interchange/bin/restart to
        work!

        Interchange uses a special invocation script, located at
        /usr/sbin/interchange, to start the Interchange server. This is
        called by /etc/rc.d/init.d/interchange.

There was a typo in that file at the 4.5.7 release, which called out
/usr/lib/bin/interchange as the actual script.

That being said, it is possible you have SUEXEC turned on an that may
cause a problem (though usually it is a server error problem.)

Your interchange server is not running, according to the output of
your ps command, so let us know if you have tried the proper invocation
method.
