I'm trying to write an upstart script to start orbited on startup. The script is as follows:

#orbited
start on startup
stop on shutdown
script
        exec /usr/local/bin/orbited --config=/etc/orbited.cfg
end script

When I run upstart orbited I get something like this:

orbited start/running, process 605

But when I run status orbited right after doing that I get:

orbited stop/waiting

The script fails to start even though it says it's running. Any ideas?

Thanks!
