Celeryd not running at startup

Question

I ran sudo update-rc.d celeryd defaults

All good.

I ran:

/etc/init.d/celeryd start

All good.

I restart machine.

All bad.

sudo /etc/init.d/celeryd status

celeryd not running (no pidfile)

I'm a noob on linux and I don't even have the first idea of where to look to find some error messages. I checked /var/log but I don't see anything relevant. /var/log/celery is empty. But if I manually run celeryd start, then /var/log/celery will have some logs.

Here's the process.

Put the celeryd file inside /etc/init.d/
Make it executable
```
sudo chmod +x celeryd
```

Make it run on startup

sudo update-rc.d celeryd defaults
sudo update-rc.d celeryd enable <------- Are you currently missing this step?

Make it owned by root and have the correct permissions
```
sudo chown root:root celeryd
sudo chmod 777 celeryd
```

sudo chmod 777 celeryd 777 for an executable? Are you serious? – ilhnctn Mar 28 '18 at 07:20
