How can I configure a service to run at startup
Solution 1:
sudo update-rc.d minidlna defaults
This should add the service to the automatic startup system. But if you get:
System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/minidlna already exist.
Do the command
sudo update-rc.d minidlna enable
P.S.: For further detail look at the man page for update-rc.d by typing the command man update-rc.d
Solution 2:
-
To start a daemon at startup:
update-rc.d service_name defaults -
To remove:
update-rc.d -f service_name remove
defaults => default run levels 2,3,4 and 5
Example:
update-rc.d tomcat7 defaults
