Question:
I can not use chkconfig tools in Ubuntu 12.10
It's a very useful tools to configure the service to autostart or not. Why is it no longer available?
Answer:
sysv-rc-conf is an alternate option for Ubuntu.
The usage is almost the same.
To install:
sudo apt-get install sysv-rc-conf
To configure apache2 to start on boot
sysv-rc-conf apache2 on
equivalent chkconfig command
chkconfig apache2 enable
To check runlevels apache2 is configured to start on
sysv-rc-conf --list apache2
equivalent chkconfig command
chkconfig --list apache2------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The command chkconfig is no longer available in Ubuntu.The equivalent command to chkconfigis update-rc.d.This command nearly supports all the new versions of ubuntu.
The similar commands are
update-rc.d <service> defaults
update-rc.d <service> start 20 3 4 5
update-rc.d -f <service> remove
