autostart under /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/ does not works

[martro]

Hi,
i don't know if is a bug on lubuntu 13.10
I'm trying to start a script after login.
My script is that:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

echo "Hello World" > /tmp/hello.txt

if i running it from shell

Code: Select all

./hello.sh
user@localhost:~/Desktop$ ls -alh /tmp/hello.txt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 user user 12 dic  2 11:12 /tmp/hello.txt

Well. I'm changing /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart like this

Code: Select all

@/home/user/Desktop/hello.sh

but after login nothing happens

Code: Select all

ls -alh /tmp/hello.txt
ls: cannot access /tmp/hello.txt: No such file or directory

but if change local autostart

Code: Select all

cat /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart > /home/user/.config/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart

after login it works

Code: Select all

ls -alh /tmp/hello.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 12 dic  2 11:44 /tmp/hello.txt

What's wrong? How can set my lubuntu in order to run the same script for all users?

Hi. Welcome to the lxde forum. Look at this site:
http://lxlinux.com/#4
Specifically, the last paragraph of #4.
There is also an old bug filed on SourceForge.

So, it appears that if you are using both locations to auto start only the home location will work. Is that what is happening in your case?

That's it.
Now i've modified /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart and deleted home autostart.
And everytime l'm logging in /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart will copied in home autostart

Great. Stick around if you can to provide help to others. We are a small forum and are constantly looking for more volunteers to help when they can (in any way.)
