Hi again Peter! Thanks for your patience. I did "chmod +x /path to/riostart but I still get the error message that follows: lib/script '/bin/lib* file does not exist . Since the script is in /lib I don't get the meaning of < '/bin/lib* file does not exist>. Well /bin/lib doesn't exist but /lib/script does. Would greatly appreciate a hint about what to do.
