Synology service_initjob_action.c:27 InitJobStart failed, [0xD900 privilege.cpp:60

Today it happened again, trying to start a package in the console and it just failed to start. Digging deeper and looking in /var/log/messages) i saw this error service_initjob_action.c:27 InitJobStart failed, [0xD900 privilege.cpp:60.

The full error log is here:

Google found me a forum thread where people reported success after a restart and yes, that did work for me.

This situation happened a few times to me and I just realised what was going on: when I already downloaded a DSM update via the console but had not restarted the Synology yet because I was finishing something else.
