Title: bootlocal not starting daemons
Post by: eno on December 30, 2014, 04:12:18 PM

I installed openssh and have added

Code: [Select]

/usr/local/etc/ssh to

Code: [Select]

.filetool.lst and have

Code: [Select]

/usr/local/etc/init.d/openssh start in

Code: [Select]

bootlocal.sh but it never starts the openssh daemon when I boot up. Any ideas how to troubleshoot?

hi eno,

.filetool.lst entries should not have the leading "/"

ie. /usr/local/etc/ssh -> usr/local/etc/ssh

and I assume you did a filetool.sh -b

Excerpt from /usr/local/etc/init.d/openssh :

Code: [Select]

case $1 in
   status) pidof sshd;;
   start) start;;
   stop) stop;;
   restart) restart;;
   keygen) keygen;;
   *) echo "Usage $0 {start|stop|restart|keygen}"; exit 1
esac

...looks like you need to invoke it with the "start" argument, otherwise it will just (try to) display some help text and then quit.

Code: [Select]

/usr/local/etc/init.d/openssh start
Also if you don't back up your keys, it will generate new ones on every reboot, which can be annoying.

Edit 2014-12-29 15:40 :  That is, assuming these things work the same on Pi as on x86.

Actually I did have the start argument in bootlocal.

But I forgot that entries in .filetool.lst should not have leading entries so Im thinking that's probably the problem. I will have to go back and test that.

OK, went back and removing leading slashes. Ran filetool.sh -b and rebooted but I still dont see sshd running after its finished booting. I do see the process running bootlocal.sh, it just doesn't appear to run the start command I put in there. The extension is mounted correctly (i.e. I see /usr/local/etc/init.d/openssh is a sym link to /tmp/tcloop/openssh/usr/local/etc/init.d/openssh which is mounted).

Yoo did not tell which version you are playing with.

Also, there is an image available with openssh preinstalled. Maybe worth to try.

Im running latest piCore beta (I have another RPi with an older beta where this openssh setup works). I tried comparing devices but did not see any differences. I will try reinstalling just to get to a known baseline before testing again.

I reinstalled before reading your reply so Im running beta3 but everything is working now anyway (perhaps I missed a step the first time round). Thanks for everyone's help.
