Can not get init.d script to load

Question

I have this init.d script

#!/bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:          jboss
# Required-Start:    $local_fs $remote_fs $network $syslog
# Required-Stop:     $local_fs $remote_fs $network $syslog
# Default-Start:     2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop:      0 1 6
# Short-Description: Start/Stop JBoss AS v7.0.0
### END INIT INFO
#
#source some script files in order to set and export environmental variables
#as well as add the appropriate executables to $PATH
[ -r /etc/profile.d/java.sh ] && . /etc/profile.d/java.sh
[ -r /etc/profile.d/jboss.sh ] && . /etc/profile.d/jboss.sh

case "$1" in
    start)
        echo "Starting JBoss AS 7.0.0"
        #original:
        #sudo -u jboss sh ${JBOSS_HOME}/bin/standalone.sh

        #updated:
        start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --background --chuid charlie --exec $JBOSS_HOME/bin/standalone.sh
    ;;
    stop)
        echo "Stopping JBoss AS 7.0.0"
        #original:
        #sudo -u jboss sh ${JBOSS_HOME}/bin/jboss-admin.sh --connect command=:shutdown

        #updated:
        start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --background --chuid charlie --exec $JBOSS_HOME/bin/jboss-cli.sh -- --connect command=:shutdown
    ;;
    restart)
    ${0} stop
    ${0} start
    ;;
    *)
        echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/jboss {start|stop|restart}"
        exit 1
    ;;
esac

exit 0

I have tried sudo update-rc.d jboss.sh defaults

But it does not load! Where am i going wrong here? I am running ubuntu 10.10

Have you tried it with `--chuid jboss` already? (instead of charlie) — ott--, Aug 06 '12 at 20:50
When the machine has finished booting the script has not run what it should have run — Charlie Davies, Aug 07 '12 at 16:17

You may have the file located in the /etc/init.d directory correctly, but you need to do another step: Run the update-rc.d to enable the init file to run in the various run levels.

I have done this and it still fails to load on boot? – Charlie Davies Aug 07 '12 at 16:16
Are the file perms 755? – mdpc Aug 07 '12 at 17:01
