That's arguably a bug. It should be something more descriptive. The
standard is that the name of the script file, the $name variable and
the PROVIDE line should all match.

You missed the bit where I said that this should come after the
assignment of the defaults below.

Have you confirmed that the two pid files exist, and that they contain
the right information?
