I think there might be a bug buried here. I hit this before a demo this
morning - the problem was that the pid files at
/opt/puppet/share/puppet-dashboard/tmp/pids/delayed_job.{0,1}.pid were
present but there was no PID in them (and the background workers weren't
running). Removing the pidfiles allowed the service to start, but we need
to discover why these files are being created empty. My master was on
Ubuntu 12.04 and PE 2.7.0
