Opssss, sorry, I meant that "lighttpd DOESN'T use LSB specs but Debian specs".
You say that "it's not a sensible behaviour to fail when asked to
start a service that is already running" but this is the default
behaviour of Debian init scripts (dince --oknodo is optional and of
course not always used).
Thanks for your comments. Best regards.
