[maemo-developers] Aegis - Upstart script not working in Harmattan

[From: Tuomo Tanskanen]

(Posting from mobile, excuse top post)

Hi,

Harmatran has Upstart 1.2 and since 0.5 the init job directory has been /etc/init/ . /etc/event.d/ is not used. This is the main reason for your failure.

Secondly, in SDK docs (dunno URL) it is suggested that 3rd party apps are installed to /etc/init/apps/ which is dedicated for this purpose and which imposes couple limitatations to jobs in it. There has been changes in those since n950 sw version and latest internal builds.

I think Aegis might prevent your job to be run from /etc/init/ so you should install to /etc/init/apps/. Most notably, jobs launched from there cannot have "start on" stanza, but they're executed at end of boot sequence.

Hope this helps.

Cheers, Tumi
