Also, I didn't check if the init.d script is provided by packaging or comes directly from upstream. If it comes directly from upstream, then sending the patch upstream directly would be best.
** Changed in: haproxy (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu High Availability Team, which is subscribed to haproxy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1325847 Title: Improvement: initscript enhancement with support for conf.d and configtest on startup Status in “haproxy” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The haproxy initscript misses a configtest option, which haproxy natively supports. It also does not warn the user, if haproxy has been disabled in the default file, but exits silently. Also, it has become a de-facto standard for daemons to include conf.d configuration file support. I attached a patch for the current init script, which remedies all these issues and should be forward/backward compatible to haproxy 1.3/1.4/1.5.
