Lisa in rc.local

dkpw · 06-21-2005, 07:45 AM

Hi,

I use KDE most of the time to browse my local network. When opening a Konquorer window and using the LAN browser I invariably get a "Lisa Demon not running" message.

I know from past experience that the command:

Code:

lisa rc start

will start the service and I can then browse successfully.

I would like to start Lisa by default and in the course of my reading thought that the way to do this would be to add the above command to the /etc/rc.local file, which is read and run at boot. Unfortunately this is not happening.

I would be most grateful for a nudge in the right direction.

Here's the contents of rc.local

Code:

#!/bin/sh
#
# /etc/rc.d/rc.local:  Local system initialization script.
#
# Put any local setup commands in here:
lisa rc start &

Regards

dkpw

EDIT:

I worked out that the command needs the full path to run. So the line in rc.local now reads.

Code:

/opt/kde/bin/lisa rc start &

Apologies to the moderators for a "wasted" post

Or

Code:

# Load Lisa
if [ -x /opt/kde/bin/lisa ]; then
  echo "Starting LISa"
  /opt/kde/bin/lisa
fi
