How can I run a bash script automatically?

I have a script named run.sh:

#!/bin/bash
cd /root/yowsup-master/src/
./yowsup-cli --interactive no --wait --autoack --config config.example

This script executes another script.

I tried adding my script path in /etc/rc.local but it doesn’t seem to work.

I also added it to startup application in Kali Linux it also doesn’t work.

I want my run.sh to execute automatically in the background when the computer starts.

bash
kali-linux

The labels do not represent the actual contents of this question. Even the title should talk about "a script" or "a command" instead of specifying bash.

Why the label "python"? – Raúl Salinas-Monteagudo – 2014-10-15T11:41:42.100

@RaúlSalinas-Monteagudo Is yowsup-cli working, I mean can you send and received messages ? – Nullpointer – 2017-06-22T10:31:29.477
