rc.local fails

[George R Goffe]

Howdy,

To get rc.local running you used to be able to put the file in /etc/rc.d and then
reboot. 

This has worked for quite some time but does not any more. This situation has been
happening now for several months. Am I missing something?

Any/all help/hints/tips/suggestions would be appreciated.

Best regards,

George...

Is the file executable?
man systemd-rc-local-generator

But why are you using it anyway?

Can you migrate to the systemd equivalent?

See the output of "systemctl status rc-local.service", you'll see whether
the service is enabled and a possible error if there was some.
