wouldn't it make more sense to move the config validation into the icinga2-daemon itself instead?

like this:

• program starts
• all output to stdout/stderr
• setuid
• config check: bail out on error, message written to stdout
• config activated, loggers switched on as defined in config
• output to stdout/stderr off
• daemonize

this would also solve #5787 and related bugs.

It was not a good idea to attach something like this to a closed bug report.

Created feature request #5788.
