How to start application after login on CentOS?

[goGuD]

I am trying to start GUI application with upstart script on CentOS. I have test script located /etc/init/ folder.

Code: Select all

start on desktop-session-start
stop on desktop-shutdown

respawn

script
export DISPLAY=:0
sleep 5
exec /.1/Projects/UpstartTest/start.sh &

end script

start.sh scripts is running binary files for GUI application.

After reboot my computer. When I typed:

Code: Select all

[root@mg-CentOS ~]# initctl status test
test stop/waiting

So my upstart is not runnig. When i type

Code: Select all

initctl start test

manually it works fine without any problem.

How can I run this upstart script after user login (desktop started) ? I am trying to find detailed documents for CentOS for upstart but there is no. Could you please kindly help me how to solve this issue. I am working on it 3 days

Have you tried putting enable in place of your status command?

Just a thought, it may just need to be enabled. Is it a process that you can start using systemctl? enable is one of the options there.
