[DRE-maint] Bug#576452: stompserver: restart cannot change user to stompserver

[Micah Anderson]

Package: stompserver
Version: 0.9.9-1
Severity: normal

If I do /etc/init.d/stompserver restart (as logrotate does), I get this:

root:/# /etc/init.d/stompserver restart
Restarting stompserver: stompserverChanging group to stompserver.
Changing user to stompserver.
 failed!
root:/# less /etc/init.d/stompserver

However, if I do a stop, and then a start, I don't see that error. Its possible that there needs to be a short sleep period after the stop is issued and before the start is issued?

I notice in the restart|force-reload block of the initscript the following:

  restart|force-reload)
    log_daemon_msg "Restarting $DESC" "$NAME"
    errcode=0
    stop_server || errcode=$?
    [ -n "$DIETIME" ] && sleep $DIETIME
    start_server || errcode=$?

However, there is no DIETIME set anywhere.
