Hi Dhaval, "Pure" upstart does not support init.d services, however upstart comes with a compatibility service /etc/init/rc.conf which does. I think you ought to be able to install it and just let the compat layer do its thing. Upstart doesn't really provide any benefit over classic services unless you convert most of your jobs to native upstart though. Fortunately, most services have upstart jobs already created for them by Ubuntu, Debian, or the appropriate upstream. I would check the appropriate package in Ubuntu/Debian for a *.conf file in /etc/init/ before you bother writing your own. If you have any other questions, check out the cookbook: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/ If you can't find the answer there, please don't hesitate to ask.
