SRU for lucid (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates)
1. Impact :
If tomcat6 is runned under a user that has a running bash process, trying to
start or restart the service will fail.
2. Fix in development version :
The fix is a oneliner in the initscript, add the missing -p option in
start-stop-daemon to use the pidfile.
It was fixed in natty with package version 6.0.28-7ubuntu3
3. Patch :
See bzr branch : lp:~mjeanson/ubuntu/lucid/tomcat6/bug632554
TEST CASE:
* Install tomcat6
* In another shell run : sudo -u tomcat6 /bin/bash
* In the first shell, restart the tomcat6 service : sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat6
restart
* Stopping Tomcat servlet engine tomcat6
[ OK ]
* Starting Tomcat servlet engine tomcat6
/bin/bash already running.
5. Regression potential
None that I can think of.
