I have a service I'm trying to write an upstart script for and it's not going too well. At some point, I decided I needed a fresh start and removed the upstart configuration file.

stop myservice
rm -f /etc/init/myservice.conf
initctl reload-configuration

However, upstart still shows my service in the list as "stopped/killed".

initctl list
status myservice

How is this possible and how can I get rid of my service for good without restarting the machine? For reference, initctl --version shows 0.6.5.

Well, restarting fixed the problem in the long run. Though I wish I didn't have to wait two weeks or so before being able to get rid of that stale entry.
