[OSM-dev] Getting tirex-batch to run on Ubuntu 16.04.

[Jochen Topf]

The ubuntu package should have installed init scripts for you. If you
have installed yourself without using the package, look in the "debian"
directory for the *.init files. They should start everything in the
right way. Note that these are for the old init system, since tirex was
created way back when systemd didn't exist.
