For those of you that don't use systemd, you can just ignore this. None of this affects the SysV init scripts in any way.
Here's a first run at the diff from the generated unit to a manual unit to fix the issue. The relevant change is making ExecStop use "stop wait" instead of just "stop". The init script (at least on my system, which is Ubuntu 16.04) does not do a "wait" on stop, but only on restart. That arguably seems fine in the SysV world. The other changes I made in the [Service] section weren't required for this particular problem, but seem like things we'd want. This fixes the problem for me. I think a more correct solution for systemd is to make this two units, one for mimedefang and one for mimedefang-multiplexor. I'm going to work on that next, before submitting anything to Debian. --- /run/systemd/generator.late/mimedefang.service 2017-09-16 01:25:06.772000000 -0500 +++ /lib/systemd/system/mimedefang.service 2017-09-28 18:41:38.651481894 -0500 @@ -1,10 +1,5 @@ -# Automatically generated by systemd-sysv-generator - [Unit] -Documentation=man:systemd-sysv-generator(8) -SourcePath=/etc/init.d/mimedefang -Before=multi-user.target -Before=multi-user.target +Documentation=man:mimedefang(8) Before=multi-user.target Before=graphical.target Before=shutdown.target @@ -14,12 +9,11 @@ [Service] Type=forking -Restart=no +Restart=on-failure TimeoutSec=5min -IgnoreSIGPIPE=no -KillMode=process +KillMode=control-group GuessMainPID=no RemainAfterExit=yes ExecStart=/etc/init.d/mimedefang start -ExecStop=/etc/init.d/mimedefang stop +ExecStop=/etc/init.d/mimedefang stop wait ExecReload=/etc/init.d/mimedefang reload -- Richard _______________________________________________ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID.
