Custom autostart script not working

[gurnarok]

Hi, I am having a problem with custom script.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
#---Examples---

# - Chromium
#xinit chromium

# - LXDE
#startx

# - Print hello
#echo -e "Hello"

#---Put your code below this line---
echo 123 > /root/bootok

Code: Select all

root@Mars:~# ls -lh /root/
total 92K
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4.0K Feb 12 11:34 configs
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Jan 31 07:20 Desktop
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root    0 Jan 31 08:07 kodi_crashlog-20180131_080705.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  82K Feb  1 18:31 kodi_crashlog-20180201_183123.log

In boot screen, I see a strange message:

Code: Select all

Started DietPi autostart (Custom /var/lib/dietpi/dietpi-autostart/custom.sh).
/bin/echo: /bin/echo: cannot execute binary file

So what is going on? How can I fix this? I am trying to delay Kodi from starting, giving MariaDB time to start.

Hi,

Confirmed, running some checks, will post back in a bit.

Will also be resolved in v6.2 update.

Thanks!

I made a dirty hack, adding sleep command into /DietPi/dietpi/misc/start_kodi

Code: Select all

        #/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
        # Main Loop
        #/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
        #-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        #Raspberry Pi
        if (( $G_HW_MODEL < 10 )); then

                sleep 2m
                kodi-standalone

        #Everything else

Ok, so I added the code and it works. But kodi is having problems starting up, I keep getting error messages when kodi tries to start.

Code: Select all

  what():   basic_string::_M_construct null not valid
Aborted
Cras report available at /kodi_crashlog-20180213_003222.log

Something is probably wrong

And the crash logs only contain

Confirmed with Kodi, I tried a few methods with no success, doesnt seem to like being launched under bash with systemD.
Needs further investigations, will need to pick this up at a later date.

Simple solution for now is using your hack (http://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f ... 900#p10866) and selecting Kodi as autostart option.
Just bear in mind, updating DietPi will revert your changes (replaced with latest scripts), so you'll need to re-add it back in.

Would it be possible, to have an option to set a delay (in seconds) when selecting Kodi as autostart.
