I'm trying to figure out why an Upstart job is not starting on startup, but I don't see anything in the syslog about failed attempts. Where does Upstart log to?

System: Ubuntu 8.04

description "simple test daemon"

start on startup
script
  chdir /home/me
  exec /usr/bin/python daemon.py &
end script

I can start the process manually, if I run sudo start myjob. When I do that I see all the output about the job starting and I can see it in the process list.

Does this thread help?
