Hi,
I did some tests:
This is the content of the file /etc/rc.d/rc.local that I used:
------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
# this is the file /ctc/rc./rc.local
/etc/rc.d/dummy-test.sh
/etc/rc.d/syncronize-java_srcs.sh
------------------------------
I put inside it two script to be executed:
/etc/rc.d/dummy-test.sh (to make a simple copy of a file)
/etc/rc.d/syncronize-java_srcs.sh (to make backups ..)
-----------------------------------
[angelo_dev@zorro rc.d]$ cat dummy-test.sh
#!/bin/bash
cp /home/angelo_dev/Documents/dconf-Editor.xcf /media/PRTZ-src_sync
---------------------------------
---------------------------------
[angelo_dev@zorro rc.d]$ cat syncronize-java_srcs.sh
#!/bin/bash
# this is the file /home/angelo_dev/bin/syncronize-java_srcs.sh
rsync -av --delete --include='*/' --include='*.java'
--include='*.form' --exclude='*' \
/home/programmers/java/PROJECTS_development/ \
/media/PRTZ-src_sync
---------------------------
the scripts are both in the same directory... ( the same directory than rc.local)
NOW :
doing the reboot, only the first script is executed
NOT the second one
So I have the _copy_ of the file (for test) _but not the backup.
_
how it can be interpreted that fact ?
The second script *IS* getting executed. But, for some reason, it is failing. I
don't know how many times that can be repeated.
Change that script to this....
---------------------------
[egreshko@meimei ~]$ cat syncronize-java_srcs.sh
#!/bin/bash
# this is the file /home/angelo_dev/bin/syncronize-java_srcs.sh
exec 2> /tmp/syncronize.log # send stderr from rc.local to a log file
exec 1>&2 # send stdout to the same log file
set -x # tell sh to display commands before execution
rsync -av --delete --include='*/' --include='*.java'
--include='*.form' --exclude='*' \
/home/programmers/java/PROJECTS_development/ \
/media/PRTZ-src_sync
--------------------------
Reboot and supply the contents of /tmp/syncronize.log
