Package: courier-authdaemon Version: 0.66.4-5 Severity: grave
After a recent upgrade to courier-authdaemon the init scripts have ceased controlling the daemon processes. Producing the error : Unknown option '-' NP: this is after the workaround to bug #818744 has been added to let the init script actually run. A full trace is included below. The lines producing this output are in /lib/init/init-d-script: + start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /run/courier/pid --startas /usr/sbin/authdaemond --name authdaemond --exec /usr/sbin/authdaemond --test + start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /run/courier/pid --startas /usr/sbin/authdaemond --name authdaemond --exec /usr/sbin/authdaemond -- Unknown option '-' + return 2 The /usr/sbin/authdaemond script (aka $DAEMON) is expecting to receive "start" or "stop", etc as its $1 parameter. For some reason the /etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon script is ignoring the error result from init-d-script and returning "exit 0" (success) anyway. Running these commands manually with the extra daemon parameter works fine: start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /run/courier/pid --startas /usr/sbin/authdaemond --name authdaemond --exec /usr/sbin/authdaemond -- start start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /run/courier/pid --startas /usr/sbin/authdaemond --name authdaemond --exec /usr/sbin/authdaemond -- stop The full output of "/etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon start" when -x is added to its shell call is listed below: # /etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon start + [ true != ] + set /etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon start + INIT_D_SCRIPT_SOURCED=true . /lib/init/init-d-script + . /lib/lsb/init-functions + run-parts --lsbsysinit --list /lib/lsb/init-functions.d + [ -r /lib/lsb/init-functions.d/01-upstart-lsb ] + . /lib/lsb/init-functions.d/01-upstart-lsb + unset UPSTART_SESSION + _RC_SCRIPT=/etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon + [ -r /etc/init//etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon.conf ] + _UPSTART_JOB=courier-authdaemon + [ -r /etc/init/courier-authdaemon.conf ] + [ -r /lib/lsb/init-functions.d/20-left-info-blocks ] + . /lib/lsb/init-functions.d/20-left-info-blocks + FANCYTTY= + [ -e /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh ] + true + PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin + export PATH + [ = true ] + SCRIPTNAME=/etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon + basename /etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon + scriptbasename=courier-authdaemon + [ courier-authdaemon != init-d-script ] + script=/etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon + shift + . /etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon + [ true != true ] + DAEMON=/usr/sbin/authdaemond + DESC=Courier authentication services + PIDFILE=/run/courier/pid + basename /usr/sbin/authdaemond + NAME=authdaemond + DESC=Courier authentication services + [ none = /run/courier/pid ] + [ -z /run/courier/pid ] + [ none != /usr/sbin/authdaemond ] + [ !
