** Description changed:
proftpd-basic 1.3.5~rc3-2 from Ubuntu 13.10
+ proftpd-basic 1.3.5~rc3-2.1ubuntu2 from Ubuntu 14.04
Init script from proftpd-basic package contains the BUG: when you run
/etc/init.d/proftpd restart it fails because of there is the race
between pidfile removal and start() which checks pidfile existency:
---
ProFTPD is started in standalone mode, currently running.
root@aa:~# /etc/init.d/proftpd restart
- * Stopping ftp server proftpd
[ OK ]
- * Starting ftp server proftpd
[ OK ]
+ * Stopping ftp server proftpd
[ OK ]
+ * Starting ftp server proftpd
[ OK ]
root@aa:~# /etc/init.d/proftpd status
ProFTPD is started in standalone mode, currently not running.
---
the next workaround helps:
