Can't seem to get hive to run on startup

[cpives2008]

I'm running hivekit on a Raspberry Pi. It runs fine, and I've created a script to run it rather than have to type in all the details everytime, so all I need to type is ./Hive and it runs perfectly.

However, I can't get it to run on startup. I've tried the init.d method and the rc.local method and neither works.

Help!

Hi @cpives2008,

Incase you haven't already got it sorted I put this in my rc.local:
nohup /root/hivekit/bin/hivekit -username <username> -password <password> -pin <pin> >> /var/log/hivekit/hivekit.log 2>&1 &

Create the logging directory:
mkdir -p /var/log/hivekit

I'd previous created /etc/profile.d/golang.sh with the following content:
export GOPATH=~/gocode
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin:$GOPATH/bin

You'll need to adjust your paths if you've put it in a different place

Not working for me

I just edited /etc/rc.local and added the command /bin/hivekit -username -password -pin

I did have to add a sleep 60 seconds command as my Raspberry Pi had not obtained an IP by the time hivekit started - works a treat!
