lxsession/LXDE/autostart is not running my script?

Question

My custom script to start midori in fullscreen browser is not loading when the pi boots. I want it to run when the desktop loads.

I call the script from /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart

by using the code

@sh /home/pi/startMidori

startMidori is the script I made which contains;

#!/bin/sh midori -e Fullscreen -a http://google.com

I can run the script from terminal as sh startMidori and it runs as expected without any issues, any idea what is going on?

Any help is appreciated

RPi Jessie not working ?

I think you want to use the autostart here:

/etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart

or:

~/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart

not here:

/etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart

...at least with the default Raspbian setup of LXDE.
