I am using my beaglebone black to run Octoprint for my printer. Its a new 
RevC with the MachineKit Image from elinux.org and I followed the basic 
raspbian install instructions for getting OctoPrint installed which worked 
fine. I also installed X11vnc and mjpg-streamer. All of these work fine 
with started manually over ssh. The issue cosmes when I try to get any of 
these services to autostart on boot. 

for Octoprint  followed these instructions:
Automatic start up

Copy the script files to their respective folders and make the init script 
executable:

sudo cp scripts/octoprint.init /etc/init.d/octoprint
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/octoprint
sudo cp scripts/octoprint.default /etc/default/octoprint

Then add the script to autostart using sudo update-rc.d octoprint defaults.

I also tried running this:

# create run-octoprint

cat > ~/run-octoprint <<EOT

#!/bin/bash

cd /home/octo/octoprint/OctoPrint

 

. ../virtenv/bin/activate

./run

EOT

chmod +x ~/run-octoprint

* Add the following to /etc/rc.local

#run octoprint as octo user

( su -c /home/octo/run-octoprint octo ) &

For x11vnc I installed through apt-get and added another script to init.d 
for vnc to start the server, as well as trying to add to rc.local and 
setting up a .conf script in init. 

and I never got to mjpg-streamer. 

anyone have any ideas.
