Summary: www-apps/trac-0.10.4 - tracd init script does not stop the tracd processes

Description Vladimir Brik 2007-06-25 15:42:50 UTC
/etc/init.d/tracd from www-apps/trac-0.10.4 uses the following to record the pid of the started tracd:

start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /var/run/tracd.pid ...> var/run/tracd.pid_

However, start-stop-daemon does not output the PID of the new process. start-stop-daemon's --make-pidfile doesn't work because tracd forks. 

tracd has an option --pidfile to write its PID, but it can't write to /var/run/tracd.pid because of permissions


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. /etc/init.d/tracd start
2. /etc/init.d/tracd stop
3. ps -ef | grep tracd
