Correct way to set up multiple controller_service?

[BoostedGS300]

I want to verify I am doing this right before I go any further and haven't found anything searching that clarified it. Here is what I have done thus far, please let me know if this is correct for setting up a 2nd controller service (first is Idrive, 2nd is tactile buttons). 

1 - Created a document named controller_service_i2c.ini in the home folder. 
2 - Copied contents of code provided by openauto for tactile buttons (ADS1115 I2C).
3 - Made executable by using chmod +x
4 - Added /home/pi/controller_service_i2c.ini to /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart

Is this all that's required besides editing values provided by Openauto? It's not working so I presume I did something wrong.

Just put

controller_service /home/pi/controller_service_i2c.ini to the /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart file. First part of the command points to the executable (controller_service in that case) and second one is the config file that controller_service will use. Currently you are trying to run an ini file as executable which will not work on Linux.

Okay I made the change, thank you. I am still not sure if it's running as it isn't working. Is there a command I can use to verify that it's actually running? I may have made a mistake when I did the chmod +x command, I used chmod -x but am not sure if it just needs to be re-entered now.

Thanks

Please post content of /home/pi/.cache/lxsession/LXDE-pi/run.log file

Please see the attached file. The IDrive controller isn't plugged in (currently installed in car), which is why it is showing an error. I can try with that plugged in if needed.

Path to the controller_service_i2c.ini is wrong (looks like it is missing / at the beginning). Where controller_service_i2c.ini is located in your system? Please verify path of the config file that you put as ciontroller_service command line argument in /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart.

Absolute path in Linux must start with / otherwise it will be treated as relative (to the runtime directory which in case of autostart is /home/pi/) path.

Thanks, didn't have the / at the beginning. I did verify the location of the config file. Here is the updated autostart that I have not tested yet. Please see attached updated log file as well.

- Final update, it works! Thank you for the help, I really appreciate it.
