 Posted: Tue Oct 10, 2017 5:23 pm Post subject: Execute scripts at kde start.(lack of scripting knowledge) |
 |
|
Hello,
i like to start my old retro superkaramba script @ kde bootup, so i added my
"superkaramba_starter.sh" as script at the KDE autostart options.
My problem: it just doesn't start up. no clue why! 
thats the file:
| Code: | #!/bin/bash
cd /opt/Superkaramba
/opt/Superkaramba/superkaramba "/opt/Stylebase/systemtux_1.2/systemtux.theme"
|
could anyone please tell me whats wrong or at least where i can watch smth like a console output for the reason of its failure?
(executing ./.config/autostart-scripts/superkaramba_starter.sh from bash starts it up, so i assume my .sh file is ok!)
Thanks!  |

here's a magic lifesaver to add to your script
| Code: | | touch /tmp/oh_i_m_alive |

Hello.
If kde runs as a specific user (not a kde user), it may then require exec permission on your script.

very good point and so easy
ok, i redirected the execute line to that oh_i_am_alive file (by "&> /tmp/oh_i_am_alive" added to the line)
and it shows me_:
| Code: | | /opt/Superkaramba/superkaramba: error while loading shared libraries: libsuperkaramba.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory |
for that reason i wanted to change the dir to the specific spript but it looks like a prior "cd" into the directory with the latter execution of the script isn't really a chance_INTO that directory.
Is there any way to "change the working path" for that line:
| Code: | | /opt/Superkaramba/superkaramba "/opt/Stylebase/systemtux_1.2/systemtux.theme" |
?
(the missing lib is in /opt/Superkaramba/ as well!)
