Please verify that you have actually updated the init script. The init script is a conffile, so if you have done manual changes (which shouldn't be necessary) you need to manually interfere to allow the update to proceed. The relevant code should have constructs like ${COMMONOPTIONS:+"${COMMONOPTIONS}"} instead of the simply quoted stuff.
