Why?

Accidentally.



And yes, my umask is 027.

Well, you shouldn’t be running init scripts directly if your
environment is non-standard. You need to use invoke-rc.d or service.
Better yet, switch over to systemd, that guarantees the correct
environment.

It doesn't matter how I start it. invoke-rc.d or service will also give 
the same error. Correct environment is the init script responsibility, 
not a user.
