  I figured out how to manually start the service, now just working on getting it to auto start on reboot. I will post a resolution if I find it.

  First it would be intersting to know what linux distribution you use. I know they switched to delivering it with debian preinstalled, which is what I used for testing and where

  
  

  sudo dpkg -i package.deb

  
  

  installs a startup script and starts the server. After that you have a file

  /etc/init.d/RepetierServer

  
  

  that can be valled like

  sudo /etc/init.d/RepetierServer start

  or with stop or restart and would do that. What might be is that the command update-rc.d is not installed. This command is used to make it start upon server restart. If you don't have it, install it with

  sudo apt-get install sysv-rc

  
  

  and then reinstall server.

  Yes I am running Debian. 

  
  

  I tried running the "sudo update-rc.d RepetierServer defaults" command, 

  but get the error "update-rc.d: error: insserv rejected the script header"

  Any messages before the error?

  
  

  The script requires these scripts to be installed

  
  

  $network $remote_fs $syslog
  

  
  

  maybe one of them is missing. I'm quite sure you could remove remote_fs at least. Except that I'm not sure why your debian does not like the header.
