P4d not starting on reboot

Posted on April 8, 2019

I’ve installed Perforce (p4d) and all it working fine. The thing I’m having trouble with is p4d -d running when the server reboots. I’ve done the following:

sudo apt-get install daemon  
cd /etc/init.d  
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Allar/linux-perforce-installer/master/p4dservice  
chmod +x p4dservice 
sudo update-rc.d p4dservice defaults 

The script seems to work although I get a “missing lsb information” warning (which I don’t think should effect anything.
The big issue is that on reboot, p4d does not start. Can someone take a look at that script or maybe this whole process and let me know what I’m doing wrong?
