I'm trying to make a simple upstart script for teamspeak server, but can't make it work.
When I say initctl start it just executes but never finishes or even emits any message. Same is happening for stop.
To be sure I am not doing anything wrong, I have copied the cron script and tried to run it, but it happens the same.
what am I doing wrong here?
UPDATE:
here is my script for TS3:
# myservice - myservice job file
description "my service description"
author "Me <[email protected]>"
# Stanzas
#
# Stanzas control when and how a process is started and stopped
# See a list of stanzas here: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/wiki/Stanzas#respawn
# When to start the service
start on runlevel [2345]
# When to stop the service
stop on runlevel [016]
# Automatically restart process if crashed
respawn
# Essentially lets upstart know the process will detach itself to the background
expect fork
# Start the process
script
emit going into TS3 dir
chdir /home/danizmax/teamspeak3-server_linux-x86/
emit starting TS3
exec su -c "/home/danizmax/teamspeak3-server_linux-x86/ts3server_startscript.sh start" danizmax &
emit done
end script
I tried even with simplest script, and that also doesn't work:
description "regular background program processing daemon"
start on runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [!2345]
expect fork
respawn
exec echo example
console output
Thank you for your help.
