Package: thttpd Version: 2.23beta1-4 Followup-For: Bug #172879
Hi. I recently installed thttpd from testing, but I found some little (but quite annoying) problems. I have apache running on the machine, and I was installing thttpd for testing purposes. I expected that Debconf would ask me to change the port of the webserver (similarly to the boa webserver installation script), or that thttpd will not start and that I'll find a message in the log. None of the above options were true: I was NOT asked to choose another alternate port, and the message said "Starting thttpd server: started." (or something like this: no errors reported!); and in the same way, NO error was written in the logfile. In fact NO thttpd server was running, there was a stale pid file in /var/run, and trying to restart via /etc/init.d didn't work, due to the error in removing the stale pid file. I had to 1 - change manually the port 2 - delete manually the stale pid file 3 - restart the server using /etc/init.d (and now it worked correctly) I think this error is related also to the #247930 and to the #334610 bug.
