I have script and I want it to run when my system reboot. I put the script in /etc/init.d/superscript

and add script to end of the rc.local

bash /etc/init.d/superscript
# i also test this
source /etc/init.d/superscript

but nothing happened when I rebooted the system. The file script have 755 perm.

What is the problem?

  • Hi Arash, can you please try using "bash /etc/init.d/superscript >>/tmp/superscript.log 2>&1" in your rc.local and check the logfile /tmp/superscript.log after boot. Also the content of your superscript might help for seeing what goes wrong :) Commented Jan 26, 2019 at 7:46

You have to keep the script in /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/superscript and make symlink with /etc/init.d/superscript.

/etc/rc.d/rcX.d directory contain scripts which are execute at boot time or at runlevel changing.

  • If script name start with S it means script start at boot time.
  • If script name start with K it means script stop/kill at boot time.

If you want to start superscript in runlevel 3 then create link with S.
