Im on Ubuntu 10.04. I want to execute script on system boot. I added it to rc.local.

If I execute rc.local manually it works fine. If I boot system in recovery mode(2nd string in boot menu) it also works fine.

But if I boot normally it is not executed. However i added sleep 20 to my script and there is a pause at the end of boot process, but nothing more is executed. Thanks

I think, it soesnt depend on contents of the script but anyway

#!/bin/sh -e

sleep 20
sudo service ssh start
su -c 'service pgsql start' postgres
sudo svnserve -d
su -c 'hamachi start' root
su -c 'hamachi login' root

exit 0
