How to add daemon to autoload in ubuntu server?

Question

ubuntu

There is an ubuntu server, tell me how to add a daemon to startup. The daemon is /folder/daemon.
As I understand it, you need to create a script, make it executable and add it to startup? And maybe there is an easier way?
By the way, I found about autorun, but what should the script look like?
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

If there is a fear in writing all kinds of scripts, then the simplest solution is to hang a cron job on the @reboot event. Of course, I don’t want to teach bad things, but for some tasks this is also a way out)

Answer 2

update-rc.d

Answer 3

ubuntu way is /etc/init/daemon.conf

Answer 4

I am using the sysv-rc-conf package.
Similar to chckconfig:
sysv-rc-conf service on
sysv-rc-conf service off

Answer 5

And so, I'll do it all over again:
1. Remove the script from autostart, #sudo update-rc.d autostart.script remove: 2. Edit, #sudo nano /etc/init.d/autostart.script (changed the position, so be it for now will be, then I will add the user): 3. I allow the file to be executed, #sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/autostart.script 4. I add the file to autostart, #sudo update-rc.d autostart.script defaults 95: 5. I reboot and look at htop, there is no dropbox :( What is the warning: /etc/init.d/autostart.script missing LSB information ?

And so almost everything turned out, but one BUT.
Autoload works if I run the daemon as root, if as a normal user, then autoload does not work :( But even if I run it as root, then after #sudo reboot, this is bullshit (sorry for the quality):
#!/bin/bash
su - username /home/username/Dropbox/.dropbox-dist/dropboxd

Answer 7

Right now everything works, but, after #sudo reboot: I use putty, I type #sudo reboot, the output is: But, the computer does not reboot, and putty does not throw an error. After I again write in putty #sudo reboot, and finally the reboot occurs. Oo
