Description Alexander Tsoy 2012-08-23 15:01:32 UTC 
In new stage3 tarballs there is a symlink /var/run -> /run. Since prosody relies
 on /var/run/jabber directory existance it fails to start because /run is tmpfs that being cleared after every reboot.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. If there is no symlink /var/run -> /run then create it
2. Try to start prosody

Actual Results:  
$ sudo /etc/init.d/prosody restart
 * Stopping Prosody XMPP Server ...
 * start-stop-daemon: fopen `/var/run/jabber/prosody.pid': No such file or directory                                                                  [ ok ]
 * Starting Prosody XMPP Server ...                                                                                                                   [ ok ]
 * start-stop-daemon: fopen `/var/run/jabber/prosody.pid': No such file or directory

Updated the init script in CVS, new merges (and remerges) should install the init script with your patch.
