Hi!
I found some topics regarding “autostart doesn’ work” but I didn’t find one matching my issue…
Everytime I reboot the system I’ve to start it manually:
sudo /etc/init.d/openhab start
maybe here are some helpful information due to my installation, it was setup by the following lines
echo "deb http://dl.bintray.com/openhab/apt-repo stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openhab.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install openhab-runtime
sudo /etc/init.d/openhab start
sudo /etc/init.d/openhab status
top u openhab
To autostart the OH service, it told me to confirm the following lines:
cd /etc/default
sudo update-rc.d openhab defaults
But after a reboot, I still have to start the service manually and control the status:
sudo /etc/init.d/openhab start
sudo /etc/init.d/openhab status
pi@RASPI:~ $ sudo /etc/init.d/openhab status

I’m running OH 1.8.x on a RASPI 2.0 with JESSIE light.
And the file locations are like this:
| OpenHab Files for… | Path |
|---|---|
| service configuration | /etc/default/openhab |
| site configuration | /etc/openhab |
| log files | /var/log/openhab |
| userdata like rrd4j databases | /var/lib/openhab |
| openHAB engine | /usr/share/openhab |
| addons and bindings | /usr/share/openhab |
| webapps folder | /usr/share/openhab |
I just own some basics of Linux. So I need some detailed instructions for help!! 
Thx in advance!
