upstart not working
- by dorelal
I saved the following file at /etc/init/nodejs.conf
description "node.js server"
author "dorelal"
start on startup
stop on shutdown
script
# We found $HOME is needed. Without it, we ran into problems
export HOME="/root"
exec /usr/local/bin/node /home/dorelal/nodejs.js 2>&1 >> /var/log/node.log
end script
Then I tried to start the server
> sudo initctl start nodejs
initctl: Unknown job: nodejs
Ubuntu information
> cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=9.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=karmic
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 9.10"
What do I need to do to start the server using upstart.
