Icinga Version: Icinga 2.0.1

The last part of the startup logfile is not written to disk when an error occurs. This makes locating the error very hard. Attached is a sample logfile with an error. I suspect that the log is buffered and not completely flushed to disk.

I use the packages from package.icinga.org on a Debian Wheezy VM.

I can confirm this behavior, I've hit it myself. I haven't had time yet to investigate if it is only on my system or not, but it seems it isn't.

Maybe this commit is causing it?

Do you use the released 2.0.1 packages or a current snapshot?

What's the exact version of Icinga 2 (git commit, icinga2 --version, dpkg -l icinga2, etc.) you used?
