Package: dpkg
Version: 1.13.11.0.1
Severity: normal
I think there exists an error in forking in start-stop-daemon.
If I run start-stop-daemon in my init-script without the --oknodo
argument start-stop-daemon replaces the script process and exits with 1
on an error.
So the script never continues to the end.
Shouldn't s-s-d return to the script so that one can handle the error?
The manpage tells me about --oknodo:
-o|--oknodo Return exit status 0 instead of 1 if no actions are (would
be) taken.
So without -o it should also return and not exit.
Part of my script:
stop)
log_begin_msg "Stopping ${DESC}:"
start-stop-daemon --stop --oknodo --quiet --pidfile $PID
log_end_msg $?
#
# the pidfile must be removed or the daemon won't start
# the next time
test -f "$DOORMAND_PID" && rm -f "$DOORMAND_PID"
