Comment #1 on issue 1198 by phil...@gmail.com: Startup script error
http://code.google.com/p/cherokee/issues/detail?id=1198

Workaround:
Moving /etc/init.d/vzquota elsewhere allowed apt-get to configure cherokee
successfully. See:

Hmm - This seems not like a Cherokee issue, but something caused by the
combination of a stop-bootlogd issue (package «initscripts») with whatever
provides your «vzquota» startup file. And although your posted messages
point out that stop-bootlogd is to blame, I think it's vzquota's fault, as
it's not Debian-packaged and might not follow policy.

I'll explain a bit, and try to offer a solution.

Initscripts in Debian have to provide startup and shutdown provides and
dependencies in a semi-header fashion. As an example, Cherokee's startup
says:

### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: cherokee
# Required-Start: $remote_fs $network $syslog
# Required-Stop: $remote_fs $network $syslog
# Should-Start: $named
# Should-Stop: $named
# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
# Short-Description: Start the Cherokee Web server
# Description: Start the Cherokee Web server
### END INIT INFO

This is because the init ordering is not hand-maintained anymore (if you
chose to use insserv's facilities, or did a clean Debian ≥6.0 install), but
regulated by its dependencies. stop-bootlogd is part of the «initscripts»
package, and I'd really not think it is in error by specifying:

# Required-Start: $local_fs $all

This seems to mean (I am not 100% sure right now) that it is started once
everything else that's pending for the current runlevel is done (and thus,
finishes boot-time logging).

Now, your vzquota file seems to come from a non-Debian source. Debian's
«vzctl» package provides an /etc/init.d/vz file, which contains the vzquota
information, and has the following dependency information:

### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: vz
# Required-start: $network $remote_fs $syslog
# Required-stop: $network $remote_fs $syslog
# Should-Start: sshd vzeventd
# Should-Stop: sshd vzeventd
# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
# Short-Description: OpenVZ startup script
# Description: OpenVZ startup script.
### END INIT INFO

So, you can either try running your vz environments using the official
Debian packages, or add the proper startup information to this initscript.
In order to do this, you can read on: (I'm quoting from Debian's
/usr/share/doc/insserv/README.Debian)
