Bug#498491: mldonkey-server: Server does not start



Package: mldonkey-server
Version: 2.9.5-1.1
Followup-For: Bug #498491


To the reporter:

No, these options are set for start-stop-daemon, not for mlnet.

Have you checked that no other running daemon uses mldonkey's ports?
For example, anon-proxy uses port 4001 by default and can prevent
mlnet from starting.

You can also remove '--background' from start-stop-daemon
cmdline, do '/etc/init.d/mldonkey-server start' and then look
into /var/log/mldonkey/mlnel.log for the reason.

To the maintainer:

The init script in its current state certainly requires your attention.
1. The line 'test -x $WRAPPER || exit 0' does nothing because WRAPPER
   is not defined and not used ('test -x' returns success, however).
2. Redirecting output of start-stop-daemon with '--background' option
   set is useless => the log file is useless.
