Re: All New rc2.d Scripts get Ignored. Debian from KNOPPIX Solved!
Date: Fri Aug 31 2007 - 12:58:30 EDT
Sometimes, I don't exactly feel like the brightest bulb on the tree, ( insert your favorite euphemism for dull-wittedness.)
When I originally posted my problem and said that the only thing the scripts that refused to run had in common was that I had put them there, I was very close to the solution. It wasn't how I set them up or anything, but that I didn't realize links should be in every single runlevel directory.
When the run level goes up from 0 to 5, one must have kill or start scripts in each rc directory. I had just put a start script at rc2.d and a kill script at rc1.d. You must make the links to kill your process at each run level below where it starts and the links to start your process at every run level at and above the level where you want it to start. When I did that, it all came up like it should.
The rc script has comments explaining how scripts are not started if there was not a K link below it. I then used find to locate every start or kill link belonging to an application that did work and that's when it hit me like a ton of bricks.
I made all the links from 0 through 6 and both processes came up on boot for the first time on the next boot.
It is still too bad that one can not capture 100% of all boot messages, and several of you have suggested various methods to capture all the console messages which are good to know for future intractable problems, but this one is solved. Many thanks for helping me think.
