**What steps will reproduce the problem?**

Run *git annex assistant --autostart*

    git-annex autostart in /home/tobru/annex/repo1
    failed
    git-annex autostart in /home/tobru/annex/repo2
    failed
    git-annex autostart in /home/tobru/annex/repo3
    failed
    git-annex autostart in /home/tobru/annex/repo4
    failed
    git-annex autostart in /home/tobru/annex/repo5
    failed

Running *git annex assistant* in each directory starts the assistant without errors.

What could cause autostart to fail? Is there any log? Or a --debug parameter?


**What is the expected output? What do you see instead?**

The assistant should start on all known repositories

**What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?**

4.20130417-g4bb97d5 on Ubuntu

**Please provide any additional information below.**

The ~/.config/git-annex/autostart file looks like this:

    /home/tobru/annex/repo1
    /home/tobru/annex/repo2
    /home/tobru/annex/repo3
    /home/tobru/annex/repo4
    /home/tobru/annex/repo5
