The first question that comes to mind is "have you looked at your various system and error log files to see if there are any clues there?"

Or have you considered adding a simple logging statement to your script to test to see what is going on when the script executes during boot time (or if it is even being executed all all)?

My experience is that logging (printing) is just about the most valuable debugging tool available.

Code:
who -r

returns run-level 2.

Under /etc/rc2.d , I have a S20tomcat7 script symlink inside. It didn't boot up =/

I tried slowing down its boot sequence by changing S20 to S90 , but it still doesn't boot..

if you want to start tomcat during booting do entry in /etc/rc.local

write your commands in rc.local file and reboot.

Oh yeah, this is the error I found in the boot logs..

Code:
sh: 0: Can't open /home/drg/Desktop/Linux/bin/startup.sh

Hmm why is this so ? The startup.sh has 755 perms and both owner and root is drg.

Try rebooting the system and checking Tomcat is not started.

Then whilst logged in as root, enter the command manually:

Code:
 
 # /etc/rc2.d/S20tomcat7 start

(Actually, you probably won't need the "start" argument, that's probably inside the S20tomcat7)

Now if it falls over you should see the error message(s).

Here is an example of rc.local which is running from 2 years on my server, if your tomcat starts only with sudo then its permission issue.

Code:
$ cat /etc/rc.local 
#!/bin/sh -e

# Start Tomcat 
JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0_10"
JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true"
CATALINA_PID="/usr/local/www/html/TOMCAT_DEMO/tomcat/webapps/UI_PID"
export JAVA_HOME JAVA_OPTS CATALINA_PID
exec /usr/local/www/html/TOMCAT_DEMO/tomcat/bin/catalina.sh start


exit 0

I tried posting the same script into /etc/rc.local , but it doesn't work. The boot log shows the echo message in the tomcat init script.

Code:
Run as $0 <start|stop|restart>

On the other hand, if anyone can interpret this error from my boot logs for the rc scripts, it will be greatly appreciated.

Code:
sh: 0: Can't open /home/drg/Desktop/Linux/bin/startup.sh
