Hi Hans,
I've tested this as follows:
lxc exec ubuntu:xenial tester && lxc exec tester bash
apt update && apt dist-upgrade -y && apt install -y haproxy
service haproxy restart
chmod -x /usr/sbin/haproxy
service haproxy restart
Job for haproxy.service failed because the control process exited with error
code. See "systemctl status haproxy.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
root@tester:~# /etc/init.d/haproxy status
root@tester:~# echo $?
0
The issue isn't the pidfile check, but rather the executable check on
line 21:
test -x $HAPROXY || exit 0
Commenting that line yields:
root@tester:~# /etc/init.d/haproxy status

So /etc/init.d/haproxy needs a nonzero return code on line 21.
Can you check if this is the case upstream as well?
