However, according to the upstart cookbook, the desired states for a already started/stopped job are 'start/running' and 'stop/waiting'. Maybe a misunderstood has occurred was the meaning of signals was job states (for example, after a job reaches the start/running state, it emits the started signal). The strange thing is that the waiting/running wait states were proposed at the first implementations of this job, and not the stopped/started states: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/upstart- devel/2011-February/001405.html. This bug can make some developers to write upstart jobs that return errors (like the GlusterFS developers, that forgot the WAIT_STATE="running" condition).
