btsync won't auto start

[wintermute000]

I have an issue that I'm not entirely sure how it started - basically the btsync plugin won't auto start and I can't start it from the GUI.

I CAN start it manually via getting into the jail and using basic 'nix fu.

/usr/pbi/btsync-amd64/bin/btsync --config /usr/pbi/btsync-amd64/etc/btsync.conf &

how do I fix it so I can auto start it / start from GUI? I have updated it several times now and its still the same. I don't want to mess around with rc.local or other 'standard' unix shortcuts as this is a freebsd jail, further, I'm not sure how the plugins are built. If someone more knowlegeable can confirm that would be great, happy to deal with it like say a standard FreeBSD service (like debian /etc/init.d services etc.) but reluctant to mess with the guts without knowing what I'm doing

that's not how you should be starting stuff on freebsd, the port/plugin comes with an init script.

to debug try running the below..
service btsync onestart

if that works, then its an issue with the freenas python control files. a jail restart might fix it.
if that doesn't work, then we can debug on the freebsd level.
