Cant auto start Bitcoind on restart

[chek2fire]

I have a home 24/7 small bitcoin node and time to time i have to restart it manual for several reasons like a suddenly power of etc. I try to create a script to auro restart the programme especially with restart but with no luck. Everything i have try was a failure.
My system is Ubuntu server 14.04 with upstart and i will describe as better as i can what i have done so far until now.

1)First i try to type this in contrab -e

@reboot bitcoind -daemon

and then this

@reboot /usr/bin/bitcoind -daemon

but bitcoind didnt start at all and i have again to start it manual.


2) then i try to type a script in the /etc/rc0.d or to rc.local. The script was that

#!/bin/bash

while true; do
  sleep 5
  if [ ! "$(pidof bitcoind)" ]; then
    bitcoind
  fi
done

the script was working alone if i run it, was working after restart but was not able to start bitcoind.


3) then i try this

http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/13795/ubuntu-linux-how-do-i-start-bitcoind-as-a-service-to-run-automatically

description "bitcoind"
 
start on filesystem
stop on runlevel [!2345]
oom score -500
expect fork
respawn
respawn limit 10 60 # 10 times in 60 seconds
 
script
user=mobinmob
home=/home/$user
cmd=/usr/bin/bitcoind
pidfile=$home/bitcoind.pid
# Don't change anything below here unless you know what you're doing
[[ -e $pidfile && ! -d "/proc/$(cat $pidfile)" ]] && rm $pidfile
[[ -e $pidfile && "$(cat /proc/$(cat $pidfile)/cmdline)" != $cmd* ]] && rm $pidfile
exec start-stop-daemon --start -c $user --chdir $home --pidfile $pidfile --startas $cmd -b -m
end script

i have add it to /etc/init as bitcoind.conf i restart my server but again bitcoind was not running.
The strange is that if i try to manual start it with this command

sudo service bitcoind start

it returns

start: Job is already running: bitcoind

but when i check it with bitcoin-cli getinfo the system say error: couldn't connect to server and i have again to start it manual or i have to stop the service and the again type sudo service bitcoind start.
I dont know but bitcoind it seems that cant start before the login in the system or something like that. I cant find any other explanation

On my system bitcoind runs as user bitcoin group bitcoin.  The file name is /etc/init/bitcoin.conf and its contents are:
====================

start on stopped rc RUNLEVEL=[2345] and (

            not-container or

            container CONTAINER=lxc or

            container CONTAINER=lxc-libvirt)



stop on runlevel [!2345]



respawn

exec start-stop-daemon --start --user bitcoin --chuid bitcoin --chdir /home/bitcoin --exec /home/bitcoin/bin/bitcoind -- -conf=/home/bitcoin/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf -disablewallet

=========================

and my user is part of bitcoin group. groups returns

bitcoin adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare

Ok i find a solution with runit. In my ubuntu server system i first to install the runit package

2. then i have to create an upstart script and save it in /etc/init/ as runit.conf

description "runit"

start on filesystem
stop on shutdown

respawn

script
exec runsvdir-start
end script

3.then i have to create a new folder in /etc/svn and a run excetuble

sudo mkdir /etc/sv/bitcoind/
cd /etc/sv/bitcoind/
sudo touch run
sudo chmod +x run

the run file must contain this

#!/bin/sh
exec chpst -u username -n 9 env HOME=/home/username bitcoind


4.then sysmlink this to etc service

sudo ln -s /etc/sv/bitcoind/ /etc/service/

5. finally i have to start it

sudo service runit start

and it works fine
A big thx to mobinmob
