Package: activemq Version: 5.15.4-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
ActiveMQ failed to start. A quick search on the latest release page and I found https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-6930 Meaning that ACTIVEMQ_OUT variable is now requred when using bin/activemq start Currently every start of activemq results in $ systemctl status activemq ● activemq.service - LSB: ActiveMQ instance Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/activemq; generated) Active: active (exited) since Tue 2018-06-12 14:21:44 AEST; 1s ago Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8) Process: 25865 ExecStop=/etc/init.d/activemq stop (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Process: 27015 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/activemq start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Jun 12 14:21:39 homerl systemd[1]: Starting LSB: ActiveMQ instance...

Apending into /usr/share/activemq/activemq-options file the following: ACTIVEMQ_OUT="/dev/null" activemq now starts without issue.
