Seems that problem is in the script. I changed it to the draft code (based
on
http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/newbie/97097-how-create-linux-service-daemon.html)
below and it worked fine:

#!/bin/bash

case "$1" in
  start)
    # Start daemons.
    echo -n "Starting /bin/project1 daemon: "
    echo
    start-stop-daemon -S -b -x /bin/project1 -- -r
    echo
    ;;
  stop)
    # Stop daemons.
    echo -n "Shutting down /bin/project1: "
start-stop-daemon -K -x /bin/project1 -- -r
    echo
    # Do clean-up works here like removing pid files from /var/run, etc.
    ;;
  status)
    status /bin/project1
    ;;
  restart)
    $0 stop
    $0 start
    ;;
  *)
    echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|status|restart}"
    exit 1
esac
exit 0
