Run application at startup
We have a Windows Service written in C# ported over to linux using Mono Develop... The code is working 100% when we run a script file which runs the exe... but we want the application to run at startup.... The application gathers info of the computer eg. Hard Disk Space etc... And compress it into a .zip file and then calls a web service method to upload the data... Any ideas on how to get it running at startup?

mono-service
Mono(Mono 1.0) Mono(Mono 1.0)
NAME
mono-service, mono-service2 - Mono ServiceProcess host
SYNOPSIS
mono-service [options] program.exe
DESCRIPTION
The mono-service is a host to run services built with the ServiceProcess assembly.
Use mono-service to run services that use the 1.0 assemblies and use mono-service2 to run services that use the 2.0 assemblies.
Services can be paused by sending the SIGUSR1 signal to the process, and execution can be resumed by sending the SIGUSR2 signal. The ser-
vice can be cleanly shutdown by sending the SIGTERM signal to the process.
Mono programs started with mono-service run with the MONO_DISABLE_SHM variable set. This means that certain Mono features that depend on
it are not available to services.
The following options can be used to control the service:
-d:DIRECTORY
Use this option to specify the working directory for the service. The default is the current directory.
-l:LOCKFILE
Specifies the file to use for locking, the default is a filename constructed in /tmp based on the name of the program that hosts the
service.
-m:MESSAGE
Name to show in the syslog.
-n:NAME
Use this to specify the service to be launched (if the program contains more than one service). The default is to run the first
defined service.
--debug
Use this option to prevent mono-service from redirecting stdin and stdout and prevent the program to be sent to the background.
Equivalent to --no-daemon
--no-daemon
Use this option to prevent mono-service from redirecting stdin and stdout and prevent the program to be sent to the background.
Equivalent to --debug.
CONTROL
You can control the service by sending signals to the process, you can use the following commands:
Pausing service:
kill -USR1 `cat <lock file>`
Resuming service:
kill -USR2 `cat <lock file>`
Stopping the service:
kill `cat <lock file>`
EXAMPLES
Start the MyService.exe assembly, with a lock in /root/service-lock:
mono-service -l:/root/service-lock MyService.exe
DEBUGGING
Messages produced by the service are logged on syslog.
