xbt auto start after reboot

[Martin Muslera]

Hello,I'm trying to insert xbt_tracker into the startup services of my server with debian etch.

This is what I've done,but it doesn't work.

1)  cp xbt_tracker into /usr/local/bin/ and make it executable
2) try to add a chkconfig like this:       chkconfig --level 345 xbt_tracker on
but it doesn't work.

xbt/Tracker# chkconfig --level 345 xbt_tracker on
xbt_tracker: unknown service

How can I make the xbt_tracker starting after a reboot automatically?

Thanks.

Read the Debian documentation. ;)

You could for example use crontab instead of an init script.

[MSW]

mcedit /etc/init.d/xbt

#!/bin/sh XBT_PATH="/usr/local/bin" start() { echo "XBTT start" start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec $XBT_PATH/xbt_tracker -- --conf_file $XBT_PATH/xbt_tracker.conf echo $? } stop() { echo "XBTT stop" start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --pidfile /var/run/xbt_tracker.pid echo $? } case "$1" in start) start ;; stop) stop ;; *) echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop}" exit 1 esac exit 1 chmod +x /etc/init.d/xbt update-rc.d xbt defaults 99 /etc/init.d/xbt start /etc/init.d/xbt stop

My version of init script. I use it on Debian Lenny.

Script: /etc/init.d/xbt
XBTT binary file: /usr/local/bin/xbt_tracker
XBTT config file: /etc/xbt_tracker.conf

Script provides start/stop/restart commands.
Provides run from another user. (if tracker port > 1024)

Holy s**t!!! I hate sf code formatting. This sucks.

[David]

the best way:

cd /etc/rc.d
vi rc.local

and add this line:
cd /root/xbt/Tracker
./xbt_tracker

Please any one can let me know, How can I make the xbt_tracker starting after a reboot automatically?
