I have not because

- it's not really me calling /usr/bin/Orthanc but /etc/init.d/orthanc
  (I only copied that call manually in order to get more information)

- I didn't know that option existed

- I would not have guessed that adding --upgrade might have made
  a difference to a failure that tells me "stack smashing detected"
  at the console :-)

- I knew from past experience that Orthanc auto-upgraded the schema
  (but that was on SQLite and from major to major w/o a version skip)

However, I will now add this option and report back.

Would you mind adding a line to the log indicating that
--upgrade might be needed when Orthanc detects that situation
at startup ?

Also, would Debian benefit from an

	/usr/sbin/orthanc_upgrade

script which calls /usr/sbin/Orthanc --upgrade plus other options ?
