So I stripped down my haresources file so I could test this with just
httpd, and take drbd out of the picture.  I tried putting the full
path, also tried symlinking it in /etc/ha.d/resources.d, and even ran
the init script with bash -x, and did strace.  I didn't find any
indication that it was trying to start the httpd init script at all.

I followed the instructions in that link above to a T but still no luck.

The documentation says:

Note: httpd and smb are the name of startup scripts for Apache and
Samba, respectively. Heartbeat will look for startup scripts of the
same name in the following paths:

/etc/ha.d/resource.d
/etc/init.d

I've about exhausted my troubleshooting options so I'll try posting on
the heartbeat mailing list next to see if someone can help.
