Problem solving / etc/ rc.local The boot entry of the file configuration is invalid

Fixed issue: The boot entry for /etc/rc.local file configuration does not work
Start by looking at the contents of the /etc/rc.local file to find the cause of the problem.

[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/rc.local
#!/bin/bash

According to the prompt, it may not execute because the file permissions are insufficient. So, first look at the permissions for the /etc/rc.local file.

[root@localhost ~]# ll /etc/rc.local
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 13 Apr 21 23:06 /etc/rc.local -> rc.d/rc.local

/etc/rc.d/rc.local = /etc/rc.local = /etc/rc.local = /etc/rc.local = /etc/rc.local = /etc/rc.local = /etc/rc.local = /etc/rc.local = /etc/rc.local

[root@localhost ~]# chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.local
[root@localhost ~]# ll /etc/rc.d/rc.local 
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 13 Apr  21 23:06 /etc/rc.d/rc.local

After restarting the server, I found that the boot items set in the /etc/rc.local file are working properly.
