Description
I use tinyproxy - 1.11.1-r3 on OpenWrt SNAPSHOT, r27913-a2aabc9a7a
tinyproxy fails to start on boot. However, it can be started OK manually.
service tinyproxy restart
I managed to start it from rc.local with
# Put your custom commands here that should be executed once
# the system init finished. By default this file does nothing.
(
set -x
echo "START rc.local"
sleep 60
echo "STARTED rc.local"
service tinyproxy restart
echo "STARTED rc.local DONE"
) &
exit 0
If I remove sleep 60 -- then tinyproxy does not start on boot

Research direction
Start with the tinyproxy boot service invoked by service tinyproxy restart and compare its boot-time behavior with the delayed command in rc.local. Reproduce the failure on the reported OpenWrt SNAPSHOT environment and inspect startup output; done means tinyproxy starts reliably during boot without the 60-second delay.
