As you spotted john my killing loop was killing the system V script itself
also hence it never starting my_app again, so instead a simple if skips the
process ID of the system V script itself so it can continue on to start
my_app again:

My script looks like the following:
restart)
echo "Stopping my_app:"
pgrep my_app | while read PIDS
do
if [ "$PIDS" -eq $$ ]; then
continue
fi
kill -9 $PIDS
done
echo "Starting my_app:"
/etc/init.d/my_app start &
exit $?
;;
Thanks for the help everyone its greatly appreciated.

James ;)
