Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: jetty

How to reproduce this bug:

  - Install Jetty 6.1.24-5
  - change NO_START variable in /etc/default/jetty
  - sudo /etc/init.d/jetty stop
  - sudo /etc/init.d/jetty start

  It will print "Starting Jetty servlet engine" and then return very
fast to shell prompt.

Why it happens:
  This is a problem with "rotatelogs" utility in /etc/init.d/jetty.
  Version Jetty 6.1.22-1ubuntu1 has not this problem.
  Version Jetty 6.1.24-5 in Debian has this problem. Previous version in Debian 
has not this problem.

How to work around:
  There are two ways to work aroud.
  a) To delete /var/log/out.log and to start jetty with "sudo /etc/init.d/jetty 
start" (the problem will appear again next time you will have to restart jetty).
  b) To revert the lines of jetty that use rotatelogs as in previous version:
      -      $ROTATELOGS "$LOGDIR/out.log" 86400 \
      -                          < "$LOGDIR/out.log"
  >>>>>>>>
     +     sudo -b -u $JETTY_USER $ROTATELOGS "$LOGDIR/out.log" 86400 \
     +                          < "$LOGDIR/out.log"

This bug have to be reported to Debian too.
