Is this program you are running independent or does it depend on some other
files also?

Can you mention what is the command you are running in rc.local?

The reason I am saying this is because when the script in rc.local is
called, it runs under the '/' directory and this might be the error, that is
the program is running but not as desired.

If it not independent, then I suggest you give the full path of the files
which the server script depends on.
