Even though I don't care about it, I'm a sucker for testing/proving theories. I created an rc.local file that called a script in my home directory with a deliberate failure. Both scripts recorded their actions in a file..... After boot.... rc-local.service - /etc/rc.d/rc.local Compatibility Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/rc-local.service; static) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Wed 2014-10-29 07:34:20 CST; 1min 2s ago Process: 1217 ExecStart=/etc/rc.d/rc.local start (code=exited, status=2) [egreshko@f20f ~]$ cat /tmp/rc.local.log + /home/egreshko/bin/run [egreshko@f20f ~]$ cat /tmp/myscript.log + ls /home/egreshko/notreally ls: cannot access /home/egreshko/notreally: No such file or directory I'm guessing that in the OP's case where it was reported (code=exited, status=3) that the 3 is the exit code of the rsync command and may indicate..... 3 Errors selecting input/output files, dirs But since that is just an assumption, I would want to see the results of the rsync which is why I suggested either moving the rsync into rc.local or putting the commands to create a trace file in the syncronize-java_srcs.sh script. -- If you can't laugh at yourself, others will gladly oblige. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
