Hi all.

I try to use a script that runs correctly on IOT2040 on 2050.

This script allows to delete old data files into a defined directory.

I write a script filename.sh with the following command line :

find /home/data/* -mtime +180 -exec rm -f {} \;

This means that files older than 180 days will be delete at startup.

I put this .sh file into startup with :

update-rc.d filename.sh defaults

On 2040 the system answer 

"Adding system startup for filename.sh"

On 2050 no answer.

In addition, if I see on /etc/rc?.d folders, I can't see the filename.sh as launched scripts.

Obviously the script doesn't run on 2050.

Some ideas?

There is something on 2050 that don't allow this modification?

The script has to be located in /etc/init.d/<script>, see also https://manpages.debian.org/bullseye/init-system-helpers/update-rc.d.8.en.html.

In order to be future-proof, you may want to consider translating your script into a systemd service. See e.g. https://wiki.debian.org/systemd/Services.

Hello.

Thanks for info that will be useful into future projects.

I do not understand why the command update-rc.d doesn't work into IOT2050.

The attached screenshot show the directory with the script .sh file.

It looks in the correct position. There is some wrong setting into system that no allows this function?

IOT2050 use 'systemd' to start
