I see that this is not happening, at least if starman receives the --user and
--group parameters.
I have use --user teddy --group teddy in the upstart config, and even though I execute "start
prg" and "stop prg" from the root account, all the starman processes are owned by
teddy account. And there are 11 processes, even though I asked starman to run 10 children, so the
master process is also owned by teddy account.
Hmm, weird. Maybe I'm wrong, in which case I have no idea how my config
file works without "expect fork".
I've seen that not all the processes started automaticly use upstart under
Ubuntu.
For example, I can manage apache2 process using
service apache2 status
but not
status apache
because apache2 uses a SystemV script.
I read somewhere that upstart can work somehow with upstart scripts, but
that the old SysV init scripts are also executed... but I don't know if
it can also work in the same way with SysD scripts...
Ubuntu is in the process of moving things from SysV to Upstart. In 10.04,
very few daemons use upstart. I expect that's changed in 12.04.
Regardless, using systemd doesn't seem feasible.
