Start Sunspot solr at/on Reboot

Question

Hi guys,

I'm trying to start Sunspot's solr server on my ubuntu workstation and server. So far I'm tried in the crontab

@reboot sh -c 'cd /<location of rails program>/; rake sunspot:solr:start'

and

@reboot sunspot-solr start -d <options> -s <options> -p <port-num>

Neither are able to start the server at reboot.

Thoughts? Thanks,

Justin
