Welcome to the list!
There's no timeout in InitNG's service handling that produces a "ok" signal.
At least none that I know about. The great master, Ismael, should verify
this. ;-)
Let's start by adding some debug output. Could you please modify your
service that it looks like this:
----%<----
echo $(date) nwpboot
time /usr/bin/nwpboot /root/nwp_program userapp
rc=$?
echo $(date) done nwpboot
exit $rc
---->%----
Let's see how it behaves. :-)
Thanks.
