Running the highstate, or an individual state on the masterless minion works as expected, however it does not run when the minion service is restarted, or the server is rebooted.\r\n\r\nIn my minion file I have the following settings\r\n```yaml\r\nstartup_states: 'highstate'\r\nfile_client: local\r\n```\r\nand I have a `top.sls` file in `/srv/salt/` which calls my state file `start.sls` in the directory `start`.\r\nI have tried moving the `start.sls` out of the directory, and also tried calling that directly from the minion config file using `startup_states: sls` and listing it below.\r\n```yaml\r\nsalt-call --versions-report\r\n           Salt: 2015.5.5\r\n         Python: 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Jul 23 2015, 05:13:40)\r\n         Jinja2: unknown\r\n       M2Crypto: 0.20.2\r\n msgpack-python: 0.4.6\r\n   msgpack-pure: Not Installed\r\n       pycrypto: 2.0.1\r\n        libnacl: Not Installed\r\n         PyYAML: 3.10\r\n          ioflo: Not Installed\r\n          PyZMQ: 14.3.1\r\n           RAET: Not Installed\r\n            ZMQ: 3.2.5\r\n           Mako: Not Installed\r\n        Tornado: Not Installed\r\n        timelib: Not Installed\r\n       dateutil: Not Installed\r\n```\r\nThanks"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/saltstack/salt/issues/comments/167151980","html_url":"https://github.com/saltstack/salt/issues/29835#issuecomment-167151980","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/saltstack/salt/issues/29835","id":167151980,"user":{"login":"jfindlay","id":702905,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/702905?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/jfindlay","html_url":"https://github.com/jfindlay","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jfindlay/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jfindlay/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jfindlay/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jfindlay/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jfindlay/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jfindlay/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jfindlay/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jfindlay/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jfindlay/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-12-24T19:32:12Z","updated_at":"2015-12-24T19:32:12Z","body":"@gravitypaint, thanks for the extra information.
