Error running own script at boot

Hi!


I'm trying to run my own script on a CCGX. The script works well if I start it over an SSH session, but when I try to start it at boot it gives the following error: 'softlimit: fatal: unable to run /data/dbus-dummygridmeter-py/dummygridmeter.py: access denied'.

Anyone know what the probleme could be?

I symlinked my program in /data to /service so daementools kan invoke it at boot.

First guess would be access bits, but I expect you have thought of that. As a test try:

chmod a+x dummygridmeter.py

However for the services I have written the symlink is not to the py file but to a shell script tat starts the py file, look at the other python based services examples in Venus OS and follow them.

Also try :

svc -d (and/or -u) <your service>
to prove daemontools can do its stuff.

HI @LaurenceH thanks for your answer! I just found out that my script and my run script didn't had the correct rights, I changed that and now everything works perfect.
