I am doing the same. I have console application which i want to run on startup ..
1 application is simple Hello World.
2 UID is 0xE07695CA
3 Name of EXE is Testrsc.exe
4 Name of RSS file E07695CA_reg.rss
5 In mmp start resource section i am writing
START RESOURCE E07695CA_reg.rss
TARGETPATH \private\10003a3f\import
END
6 contents of RSS file are

#include <startupitem.rh>
// Replace this with the UID3 of your application
UID3 0xE07695CA
RESOURCE STARTUP_ITEM_INFO Testrsc
{
executable_name = "!:\\sys\\bin\\Testrsc.exe";
recovery = EStartupItemExPolicyNone;

Have you signed your application with self-sign certificate??

[kiran10182]

...I have console application which i want to run on startup ..

Have you ever tried running your console application stand alone? Means without Startup List Management API?

[symbianyucca]

And did you install the application into the C-Drive ?

[gaurav.gupta]

Hi
i have signed my application with open signed certificate.
Standlone application is running well it is just a hello world application
and it is installed in c:\sys\bin

IS everything fine...

Hi,
Gaurav have you included ProtServ capability in your mmp file. If not , then add this capability and compile and run your code again.

Regards,
Sumit

[gaurav.gupta]

This is my package file and i have now added protserv capability in my mmp ....
TARGET Testrsc.exe
TARGETTYPE exe
UID 0 0xE07695CA

USERINCLUDE ..\inc
SYSTEMINCLUDE \epoc32\include

SOURCEPATH ..\src
SOURCE Testrsc.cpp

START RESOURCE E07695CA_reg.rss
TARGETPATH \private\10003a3f\import
END

[savaj]

AFAIK autostart does not require any capability, it just not work with selfsigned certificate. so you have to use either developer certificate or use opensigned option for testing app.

[sumit.rathi]

This is my package file and i have now added protserv capability in my mmp ....
TARGET Testrsc.exe
TARGETTYPE exe
UID 0 0xE07695CA

USERINCLUDE ..\inc
SYSTEMINCLUDE \epoc32\include

SOURCEPATH ..\src
SOURCE Testrsc.cpp

START RESOURCE E07695CA_reg.rss
TARGETPATH \private\10003a3f\import
END

I recommend you to send Testrsc.exe and E07695CA_reg.rsc in C drive only.We want to see your package file also . show your package.

Have you readed article properly??? The resource file must be in C drive.
"$(EPOCROOT)Epoc32\data\z\private\10003a3f\apps\E07695CA_reg.rsc"-"c:\private\101f875a\import\[E07695CA].rsc"

[savaj]

I recommend you to send Testrsc.exe and E07695CA_reg.rsc in C drive only.

Resource file [uid].rsc must be in C drive (c:\private\101f875a\import\). The location of .exe and other file does not matter at all.

[gaurav.gupta]

sorry for that sir

[gaurav.gupta]

i have send .rsc file in private folder

$(EPOCROOT)Epoc32\data\z\private\10003a3f\apps\E07695CA_reg.rsc"-"c:\private\101f875a\import\[E07695CA].rsc"
do i need to send .exe file in the same folder
