thanks for the tip with sh -x, that made the problem visible.

I changed now this line:
command_args="-f -P ${pidfile} %%PREFIX%%/bin/gotify-server 
${gotify_server_args}"

This causes the execution of:
+ eval $' limits -C daemon  su -m gotify -c \'sh -c " /usr/sbin/daemon  
-f -P /var/run/gotify_server.pid /usr/local/bin/gotify-server "\''
+ limits -C daemon su -m gotify -c 'sh -c " /usr/sbin/daemon  -f -P 
/var/run/gotify_server.pid /usr/local/bin/gotify-server "'

which is exactly what I want.
The binary is now executed. There is no need to give a -u flag to daemon.
