    Screen not able to be resumed after running on startup (server 14.04)

    EDIT: Fixed the problem, had to run the program from rc.local as ryan.
    new rc.local
    Code:
    #!/bin/sh -e#
    # rc.local
    #
    # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
    # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
    # value on error.
    #
    # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
    # bits.
    #
    # By default this script does nothing.
    
    su -c 'cd /home/ryan/minecraft && ./srvr' ryan &
    exit 0

    I am having trouble with screen. I am using it to start a minecraft server, and to do this I am attempting to run it on startup using a shell script that is started by rc.local.

    rc.local
    Code:
    #!/bin/sh -e#
    # rc.local
    #
    # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
    # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
    # value on error.
    #
    # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
    # bits.
    #
    # By default this script does nothing.
    
    
    sh '/home/ryan/minecraft/srvr'
    
    
    exit 0
    /home/ryan/minecraft/srvr
    Code:
    #!/bin/sh
    /usr/bin/screen -dmS "msrv"
    /usr/bin/screen -S msrv -p 0 -X stuff "cd /home/ryan/minecraft^M"
    /usr/bin/screen -S msrv -p 0 -X stuff "java -Xmx2048M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar nogui^M"
    Now, when I reboot, I am expecting a screen to be running, detached, and to have a minecraft server running in it. However, after logging in to ryan and typing 'screen -r' the console outputs that 'There is no screen to be resumed'. Now this would seem to indicate that the script was not executed, yet when I run my minecraft client and go into my multiplayer tab, I can connect to my minecraft server. So I have no idea why this is happening.

    If anyone could give me some advice, it would be greatly appreciated.
