I have one script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d that doesn't run. Any ideas why?
It is marked as executable

ls -l /usr/local/etc/rc.d/
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   441B Dec 30 20:36 start-program.sh


The script is just:

#!/bin/sh

log="/var/log/program.log"
echo ----------------->>$log
/bin/date >>$log
echo Entering program.sh >>$log

case "$1" in
       start)
               echo Starting program
               echo ================= >>$log
               echo Starting program >>$log
               /home/root/bin/archivec.pl >> $log
               echo beyond program call >> $log
               ;;
       stop)
               echo No Stopping procedure yet
               ;;
       *)
               echo Need parameter
               echo Valid parameter: start
               ;;
esac


A couple of times the log was written to.. although the script was not run.. but afterwards not even the log was changed.. as if the program did not get run at all.

Any ideas?
