How to launch Airsonos on boot Linux (Ubuntu)?

[MrSimmo]

Hi,

Can anyone help me? - I'd like to have airsonos start on every boot of my Linux server (Ubuntu 15.04) but not clear on how to do it. Preferably after the network services are init'd.

Airsonos runs fine when I launch it from the command line btw.

Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

Many Thanks

Andy

Found the answer - have posted it here so others are helped where possible.

Ubuntu 15.04 uses SystemD to launch services at boot.

I created a new file /etc/systemd/system/airsonos.service with the following content:

[Unit]
Description=Start airsonos server

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/airsonos

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Then ran:
(Assume that airsonos is not already running, if it is kill it off)
systemctl enable airsonos.service
systemctl start airsonos.service

Then I checked it was running ok by using:
systemctl status airsonos.service

Cheers, Andy
