Hello.

I want to autostart Jivelite.

I can do this with /root/jivelite/bin/jivelite

But  I want this start on power on.

How to do this?

Put your command in the file /etc/rc.local.

Put it on a new line just above the "exit 0" line.

I did but it does not work.

That file is:

#!/bin/sh -e

#

# rc.local

#

# This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.

# Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other

# value on error.

#

# In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution

# bits.

#

# By default this script does nothing.

/root/jivelite/bin/jivelite

exit 0

try as root:

sudo  /root/jivelite/bin/jivelite

 

I did but it does not work.

That file is:

#!/bin/sh -e

#

# rc.local

#

# This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.

# Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other

# value on error.

#

# In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution

# bits.

#

# By default this script does nothing.

/root/jivelite/bin/jivelite

exit 0

 

Maybe the PATH in environment is not sufficient at system start. When you are logged in as root check your environment wit the command:

env

Find the line that starts with "PATH="

Copy that line and paste it into the file /etc/rc.local above your "/root/jivelite/bin/jivelite" line.

Then add a line:

export PATH

between the "PATH=" line and the "/root/jivelite/bin/jivelite" line.

 

So the end of your rc.local should look similar to:

 

# By default this script does nothing.

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

export PATH

/root/jivelite/bin/jivelite

exit 0

 

But it is important that you replace the PATH example above with your real PATH from your system.

Maybe doing a web search for 'jivelite systemd service' is the better idea?
