[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#433085: nagios2: pid file keeps being deleted

[Sam Morris]

Package: nagios2
Version: 2.6-2+etch1
Severity: important

While configuring nagios I have been using the init script's reload
action a lot. After doing this a few times the pid file is deleted,
though the daemon continues to run in the background. This causes
subsequent invocations of the stop/restart/reload actions to fail, and
the start action results in two instances of the daemon running.
